The End of the Road: A journey around Britain in search of the dead
8 h 19 min
A wonderfully quixotic, charming and surprisingly uplifting travelogue which sees Jack Cooke, author of the much-loved , drive around the British Isles in a clapped-out forty-year old hearse in search of famous â and not so famous â tombs, graves and burial sites.The Treeclimbers Guide
Along the way, he launches a daredevil trespass into Highgate Cemetery at night, stumbles across the remains of the Welsh Druid who popularised cremation and has time to sit and ponder the imponderables at the graveside of the Lady of Hoy, an 18th century suicide victim whose body was kept in near condition by the bog in which she was buried. A truly unique, beautifully written and wonderfully imagined book.
