The Economist Book of Obituaries,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
This collection of obituaries tells the life stories of two hundred of the world's most captivating people as judged by writers Ann Wroe and Keith Colquhoun and as published in The Economist from 1994 to 2008.Each stylishly written story and accompanying photograph surprises, entertains, and stimulates. The titled, wealthy, and powerful are here, of course, including Diana, Princess of Wales, Gerald Ford, Bob Hope, John Paul II, Norman Mailer, Mstislav Rostropovich, and General William Westmoreland, but so are others: a cookery teacher and spy, the inventor of instant noodles, a selfproclaimed gypsy king, a musical psychic, an American gangster, a patriotic crook, a philosopher of consumerism, a master of tabloid journalism, a protector of minorities, a veteran of Gallipoli, the greatest of second bananas, and so on.This book is as entertaining as it is edifying; it's a great gift for biography, history, and popularculture fans, as well as for everyone who turns first to the obituary pages in the daily newspaper. As Clarence Darrow (18571938) put it: 'I never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with a lot of pleasure.'
