Final Exits: Michael Largo

Death walks behind us and it's anywhere. This book is a cross between the Darwin Awards and actual statistics dealing with the way we die, from the absurd to the tragic. Categories include: Bed and breakfast establishments; old fridges; stowaways; stampedes; hiccoughs; and some very surreal events involving office photocopiers. There is also coverage of burial customs, famous last words and more than 400 black and white photographs and illustrations.
