From the Dust Jacket: "In the design and execution of churchyard memorials local craftsmen have displayed their skills over a period of several centuries, and the result is a collection of popular art which few countries can rival and none excel. The combination of imagination and craftsmanship in sculpture and lettering, and the use of available materials produced a fantastic range of monuments In addition, the epitaphs and inscriptions reveal a native talent for poetry Above all, perhaps the churchyard has provided an outlet for one of the most persistent traits of the English character, eccentricity If you want to find out about the Englishmen of past generations, how they lived, what they believed, their trades and professions, their superstitions or their achievements then you can choose no better, or more enjoyable, source for such information than a churchyard, with this book as guide and stimulus.".
