book description

Surely everyone agrees that death is not a laughing matter?

Well, maybe not everyone. Ever since the practice of inscribing graves began in ancient times, certain individuals have chosen to mark their passing – or that of their loved ones, friends or foes – in a way that is intended to elicit smiles rather than tears, mirth instead of grief. The Last Laugh collects together some of the best examples of cemetery humour. From the cowboy graves of the Old West to the gothic headstones of Victorian England, from the tombs of famous actors and politicians to the final resting places of many ordinary people, here is a unique visual record of funny farewells. In addition to numerous witty epitaphs, there are headstones with humorous names, and graves with quirky designs or carvings that affectionately recall some aspect of a life. This book celebrates a special brand of humour, one that is tinged with poignancy and sometimes even with amazement. It is a tribute to the spirit of those who wanted to cock a snook at death – those who were determined to have the last laugh.
