Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked Seeking Salvation as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Definitely not as grim as the title might suggest. All churches are crammed full of memorials to the dead, and many dozens of books have been written that focus upon the people who lie in these tombs, or beneath the elegant grave slabs.

From Matthew's list on medieval churches.
