The dead were sometimes very funny about it. Norfolk collected the strange, boastful, bitter and accidentally hilarious inscriptions cut into English churchyard stone, along with the histories that sit behind them. A curious and oddly cheerful anthology of how people wanted to be remembered, and how comprehensively it could go wrong for them.
