Cemetery Stories
) I liked the book at first, but after I finished it I realized it did not deal with the topic I was interested in which was embalming.

Katherine M. Ramsland when't and talked first hand to find out the core that goes on in the Death business. I'm a nurse and it was very good reading material. I would advise that one should have a good stomach for this book as it is very graphic with morgue procedures.Very good book with lots of websites for the reader to check out. thanks again for a gooread.Cindy G.

An indepth look at death. Perhaps TOO indepth.Review created: 01/06/07
by:
This book will take you into the autopsy room, into the embalming room, behind the scenes of the funeral industry, and then it will take you further. I really enjoyed the first 4/5 of the book, and then it takes an unexpected turn. The last several pages of the book (chapter title: "Deviants")reveal just a bit TOO much about what certain people like to do with dead bodies, to the point of getting literally pornographic. I have been reading books similar to this for a long time, and I didn't think I could get shocked anymore, but...this one is definitely not for the faint of heart or weak of stomach.

Not to bad I guess. Parts are a little hooky but funny. I would recommend this as light reading while traveling.
