An old graveyard, writes Ruth Little, is a cultural encyclopedia. But although graveyards and gravemarkers have long been recognised as vital elements of the material culture of New England, they have not received the same attention in the US South. Sticks and Stones is the first book to consider the full spectrum of gravemarkers, both plain and fancy, in a southeastern state.

Ruth Little tells the story of Chapel Hill's "town" and "gown" from the earliest architecture of the town and campus to the imposing public and university structures of the early twentieth century and the modernist subdivisions built from the late 1950s through the 1970s.
