Publisher's Synopsis
The Little Book of Irish Grave Humour
A collection of curious Irish gravestone inscriptions from across Ireland and further afield.
Here lies Pat Steel;
That's very true!
Who was he ! what was he !
What's that to you?
He lies here, because he
Is dead - nothing new.
Here lies the remains of
John Hall, Grocer
The world is not worth a fig,
I have good raisins for saying so.
This stone was raised to Sarah Ford,
Not Sarah's virtues to record-
For they're well known to all the town-
No Lord; it was raised to keep her down.
