This review is from: Dead and Buried?: Horrible History of Bodysnatching (Hardcover)
Focuses mainly on bodysnatching in Scotland, with excursions to England and to the even-more-unsavory practice of Burking (killing people in order to sell their bodies as anatomical specimens, from the notorious Burke and Hare case). Interesting topic, but I can't recommend the book because of an abysmal lack of footnoting, overall disorganization, and persistent refusal to translate quotes in antiquated Scots into readable English. Has some nice pictures of mortsafes, though.
