Funeral Festivals in America

"Funeral Festivals in America examines rituals for loved ones separated by death, frivolities surrounding death, funeral foods and feasts, post-funeral rites, and personalized memorials and grave markers. Thursby concludes that though Americans come from many different cultural traditions, they deal with death in largely similar ways. They emphasize unity and embrace rites that soothe the distress of death as a way to heal and move forward."--Jacket.
