Title: The Undiscovered Country
Description: The author goes in search of the ancient customs, local characters and tales that illuminate how people over the years have come to terms with our ultimate fate. He discovers what a small Suffolk church has to tell us about the apocalypse; why the greatest minds of the seventeenth century were embroiled in debate over the phantom Drummer of Tedworth; and how a nineteenth-century Welsh Druid completely changed the national view of cremation.--From book jacket.
