Where Are They Buried? has directed legions of fervent fans and multitudes of the morbidly curious to the graves, monuments, memorials, and tombstones of the nearly 500 celebrities and antiheroes included in the book.

The book also provides a handy index of grave locations organized by state, province, and country to make planning a grave-hopping road trip easy and efficient.
The 2019 edition adds 15 new entries including Muhammad Ali, David Bowie, Glenn Campbell, Chris Cornell, Dear Abby, Phyllis Diller, Betty Friedan, Merle Haggard, Gordie Howe, B.K.S. Iyengar, Harper Lee, Tom Petty, Joe Strummer, Johnny Winter, and Buckwheat Zydeco.
