Book of the day:
The Disposal of the Dead, edited by C J Polson, published 1953 by English Universities Press Limited, St Paul's House, Warwick Square, London. Authors, besides Polson, are listed as Brittain and Marshall.
Sections Historical Information, Mediate disposal, cremation, burial, exhumation, embalming, funeral direction.
VERY nice index for a subject you didn't want to know about. I think the sequence of chapters odd. Embalming information follows the section on exhumation.
No Photographs.
