Crypt : life, death and disease in the Middle Ages and beyond

Roberts, Alice2024
Books, Manuscripts
In her previous two books, Professor Alice Roberts has powerfully and evocatively revived people of the past through examining their burial rites, bringing a fresh perspective on how they lived. In 'Crypt', she tells the story of Britain from 1066 to the present day - by exploring changing methods of honouring the dead. Beautifully written, vividly drawn, and expertly researched, this is a brilliant and unexpected portrait of modern Britain.
