Set #2: How They Croaked

A deliciously gruesome book on the expiration of 13 people of note. Lined up in chronological order O'Malley gives a mini biography as well as infinite detail about each death. In addition, reference as well as topical information is provided. The author illustrates in an etched black and white format; allowing humor and taste to be applied to squeamish material. Sources and an index are provided to allow for further study.
