This book brings together over two thousand epitaphs and historic inscriptions, mostly previously unpublished, carefully collected by the author from burial grounds and buildings in the North-East of Scotland. Dating from the fifteenth to the nineteenth centuries, and occasionally including ancient fragments, these inscriptions provide a rich source of information on historical figures, families, and everyday people, as well as on architectural and funerary traditions.

The author's meticulous transcriptions and insightful notes provide a fascinating glimpse into the lives of people over several centuries, offering insights into themes such as mortality, remembrance, and the changing social, religious, and cultural landscape of the area.
