Graves of the Famous and Notable

Many important people are buried in Suffolk churchyards and cemeteries. This book contains a selection of notable figures whose memorials can be seen and visited. Some are justly famous; others have eluded the recognition they deserve. Authors, artists, musicians, sportsmen, pioneers of industry, heroic lifeboatmen and Victoria Cross winners are just some of the people featured here. There are sections on disasters and murder victims. There are even some surprising connections with songs by the Beatles! Every gravestone has been photographed and studied for this book. One thing is certain: the reader will be amazed at some of the stories included here.
