Descrição do livro

Detroit photographer and documentarian Bhoff Detroit sets his sights on Woodmere Cemetery—one of the city’s oldest and most storied places. Tucked away in Southwest Detroit and spanning around 250 acres, Woodmere has been around since 1867 and offers a peaceful, tree-lined space that holds the memories of everyone from early Detroit pioneers and auto legends to veterans and everyday folks.

In this book, Bhoff explores the cemetery’s architecture—from its dramatic Gothic entrance to its chapel and garden mausoleums—and shines a light on the people buried there. You’ll find names like Henry Leland (Cadillac & Lincoln), David D. Buick, Governor John J. Bagley, Hamilton Carhartt, James E. Scripps, James Vernor, David Whitney, and even the four men killed in the 1932 Ford Hunger March.

Through his lens, Bhoff brings new life to a place often seen as just a final stop, showing instead how it quietly tells the story of Detroit—past and present.

If you’re into local history, old-school architecture, or just have love for the city, Woodmere: Detroit’s Silent Legacy gives you a fresh and vibrant look at the lives and legacies tucked away in one of Detroit’s most peaceful corners.
