The Disposal Of The Dead: A Plea For Cremation is a book written by Edward John Bermingham in 1881. The book advocates for the practice of cremation as a more hygienic and practical method of disposing of the dead. Bermingham argues that traditional burial practices are not only unsanitary but also take up valuable land resources. He also addresses the religious and cultural objections to cremation and provides counterarguments to support his case. The book provides historical and scientific evidence to support the benefits of cremation and makes a persuasive case for its adoption as a more modern and efficient method of disposing of the dead. Overall, The Disposal Of The Dead: A Plea For Cremation is a thought-provoking and informative read that sheds light on an important aspect of human culture and tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
