Black cloth with silver lettering on the spine. 166 informative and educational pages! "'That's morbid!' is the usual response when people hear you are writing a book about death and dying. But this expression of disgust and fear, with its accompanying grimace, may be a good reason for the book's existence. Reacting against the slaughter in two World Wars, the Vitctorian era's love of funeral pomp, and too much poetic romanticism ('I have been half in love with easeful death', wrote Keats), we tend to lean too far the other way.".
