4.0 out of 5 stars A wealth of information though not well organized
This volume is dense with information though it's not organized in a way that makes finding specific information effortless. Chapters cover the history of cemeteries, the history in cemeteries, buried body parts, epitaphs and animal cemeteries. No illustrations, but a good bibliography and decent index.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too textbook like
I really looked forward to getting this book and was disappointed. Way too wordy and I felt like I was reading a textbook. Wouldn't recommend it unless you really like to read a lot of facts and dates. I was looking for something with lighter reading.
