Decca Mifford's an American Way of Death

Less than 1% of burials in churchyard were linen between 1678 and 1707. But when you went inside the church itself, it was between 9% and 13%. And then the rich people who were in the church. They had all of these extra bits of linen, which meant they could make more newspapers. There's amazing, have you heard of Decca Mifford? She wrote this book called 'An American Way of Death' It exposed how funeral directors used plastic surgery to cover up blemishes or swellings after a death.
