"Australian Ways of Death: A Social and Cultural History 1840-1918 describes how Australians in the past came to terms with death within the constraints and cultural perspectives of their own times. This book is the result of intensive research into where and how people have died in Australia, how they have been buried, mourned, and commemorated, and how social and regional factors have influenced mortality rates and people's consciousness of death and loss."--BOOK JACKET.
