About this product

Product Information

Nigel Scott charts the history of two vital yet little lauded British institutions: the funeral and the means of transportation used to get there. Researched over many years and drawing together over 100 photographs from archives all over Britain, this is social history from a new perspective.

was hoping for more
This book provided some interesting information and the idea of producing a book offering some insight into an area of life/death that effects us all is a good idea.. For me personally, i would like to see the contents brought up to date to give a more modern feel, including more up to date photographs added, maybe adding photos of a variety of coffins and modern transportation. On the whole, an interesting book
