Until recently, families cared for their own dead. This book reminds us that we don't need to go out--or pay--to create a meaningful, final-farewell. Perhaps we only need to take back to ourselves the ancient rites of passage that we have so cavalierly given away over the last century. I encourage you to explore how you might restore this sacred privilege to your own family or community with the help of this important, timely book.
