Rest in Pieces: The Curious Fates of Famous Corpses by Bess Lovejoy- 329 pgs.
The title pretty much tells you exactly what the book is about. Lovejoy looks at what happened to the bodies of people like Mozart, Hitler, Hunter S. Thompson and Alexander the Great, just to name a few. Even the book itself reminds you of a coffin. It is long and narrow. Lovejoy does a good job of presenting each case in a succinct way that still gives lots of details. It was definitely an interesting read.
