How They Croaked by Georgia Bragg
3.0
I come across the most interesting books while working at the library.
A look at how a handful of famous people in history died, and not a very glamorous one. The book is not for those with weak stomachs. There are gross details about boils and puss, bodies practically exploding after death, beheadings, and blood-letting. Aimed for teenagers, with a bit of humor, a nice albeit gross, look at history, fascinating trivia and of course, slightly gruesome deaths,
