Even though I am NOT generally a lover of non-fiction, I thought this book was excellent!
-
It is fascinating and will definitely challenge your beliefs surrounding death!

As a bonus, it's an easy and smooth read. Large print, with good spacing, plus the wonderful addition of fascinatingly beautiful pen-and-ink drawings throughout that form a cohesive visual to what you are reading.
-
The author is concise, yet thorough, in her writing. She also throws in some wit along the way!

Chapters are organized by US states and countries, and include Colorado, Indonesia, Mexico, North Carolina, Spain, Japan, Bolivia, and California.
