"As a student of Bonaventure history for 25 years and as proprietor of the cemetery's first daily tour company in 2002, I can assure you that for 800,000 visitors to the property a year, a solid map has been the weakest link of the whole experience to one of Savannah's most visited destinations and one that is over 80 acres of dizzying avenues! Wanderlust is great but wonder where you are the whole time isn't. Well, welcome to the new age. Michael Karpovage has made more than just a map to the place, he's made history with its making. Not since the cemetery was founded in 1846 has a true visitor map that functions solidly, existed. Illustrating the basics from its location, capturing the visual genius of the layout, to showing you were all of the major historical figures are buried, this map lacks nothing! And as a former mapmaker myself for 7 years, I really appreciate its nuances with little notes here and there throughout revealing historical secrets and other fascinating intrigues of Bonaventure. There's an old saying in Savannah that, You've not been to Savannah until you've been to Bonaventure. I would now like to offer as an addendum, Thou better not go to Bonaventure without this map!"
