A Beautiful Slideshow about The Final Destination
This book is well organized and not only reflects some sentimental real life moments, but also some photographs of death scenes from various theatrical plays.

Disappointing...
Norfleet has assembled an interesting variety of photographs; however, her commentary is scant and superficial. Serious students of social history and of mourning art, in particular, are far better served by Jay Ruby's comprehensive work, _Secure the Shadow: Death and Photography in America_.

It has some violent photographs included however the reader should be open-minded to see them as reflections of purity and all aspects of our every-day lives. Death is the final destination and this unique collection gives us a chance to own different perspectives on this manner.

ASTONISHING!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Looking at Death (Imago Mundi Book) (Hardcover)
This book is perhaps one of the very best which deals with the subject of death. It is beautifully printed by Godine, as are all their photographic books. I cannot believe it took ten years to discover its existence and availability. Highly recommended!
