The political philosopher Karl Marx is buried in London, the poet John Keats in Rome and the communist revolutionary Leon Trotsky in Mexico. Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris is today known for the graves of the singer Jim Morrison and the writers Victor Hugo and Oscar Wilde, but when it opened in the early 19th century the owners felt that they needed some star names to make it a desired burial site - and so they had 18th century playwright Molière's body transferred there. Illustrated with 160 images, Graves of the Great and Famous provides an engaging tour of the burial sites and graves of some of the world's best-known royals, thinkers, musicians, artists, actors and politicians.
