Don’s comprehensive and knowledgeable tour offers an introduction to "the graves, the Live Oaks, the Azaleas, the Camellias, and the real history behind Bonaventure Cemetery. I will introduce you to Confederate Generals, slave traders, a musical genius, and the South’s very first feminist. And, along the way, you may discover a hidden piece from Tiffany.”
