Why can a 50p aspirin do what a 5p aspirin can't? If an item is free" it must be a bargain right? Why is everything relative even when it shouldn't be?

Long out of print this book was written to reassure the many nineteenth-century people who were apparently worried (to death?) about being buried alive. Indeed one of the authors himself had a narrow escape as his collaborator writes: ' Dr. Vollum first became interested in the important question of Premature Burial in consequence of his own very narrow escape from live sepulture having been pronounced dead from drowning & prepared for interment when consciousness happily returned spontaneously.' This edited version of the book extracts the most frightening stories of narrow escapes & living burials from a mass of historical material. Its contents list
Includes:: Animal & So-called Human Hibernation Narrow Escapes from Premature Burial Premature Burial of Doubtful Cases Death-Counterfeits The Danger of Hasty Burials Sudden Death Embalming & Dissections & Count Karnice-Karnicki's Invention.
