"Come along with the Gardino brothers as they lead another trip to cemeteries across the land where prominent Americans who served their country in many capacities are buried. Once again, the Gardinos use these visits to teach important lessons in American history ... by [examining] the graves of seventy-three Americans in all parts of the United States. These fifty men and twenty-three women made careers in many different fields of endeavor. They were soldiers, scientists, authors, judges, civil rights leaders, actors, singers, athletes, political leaders, clergymen. But they all had one thing in common: they used their talents to help others and to build a better society. To stand at their graves with Robert and Vince Gardino is to take inspiration from their lives"--
Autorenporträt
Robert Gardino is a native New Yorker. With degrees in accounting and finance from Fordham and NYU, he spent most of his working career in banking. While he has Parkinson's disease, it does not deter him from "grave tripping." Vincent Gardino was born and raised in New York as a first-generation Italian-American. His career has encompassed media sales management in radio, television, and print, including positions at ABC, NBC, New York Public Radio, and Straus News. As a graduate of St. Francis College with a degree in history, he enjoys hunting for the graves of famous individuals as a way to connect with the past.
