5.0 out of 5 stars
A look back, to look ahead,
By Mark D Crouser (Manhattan, KS United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Obituaries in American Culture (Paperback)
This book takes a look at obituaries over time in American culture. It's an interesting look at a piece of human life that often falls by the wayside. Over time our memories and conceptions concerning death, the way our lives have been led and those we have lost change. A great longitudinal study for those interested in public memory.

This review is from: Obituaries in American Culture (Paperback)
Having studied the history of attitudes toward death, mourning, funerals, and the rules and etiquette that were ever changing in Great Britain and America over the past two centuries for 20 years, I always wanted to look into obituaries as well. This book is a great place to start, discussing the very changes I'd always wondered about. A fun read, too!
