Follow 19 of history's most famous and infamous people to learn not how they lived, but how they died. Grusome tales of medicinal oddities, grave robbing organ-bandits, and the personal scarificies of those who truely obtained the height of their given careers adorn the pages of this book. Filled with wickedly dark humor and chapter titles such as "Marie Curie: You Glow Girl" and "George Washington: Little Mouth of Horrors", How They Croaked manages to make history icky and wildly entertaining and gives you just enough biographical information to encourage teens (and well...anyone) to go find out more about the people behind the deaths.
