With the growth of English cities during the Industrial Revolution came a booming population too vast for churchyards. Beckett Street Cemetery in Leeds was to become the first municipal cemetery in the country. This study relates how the cemetery was started and run, and describes the developing feuds between denominations. The author draws upon newspaper articles, archive material, and municipal records to tell the stories of many of the people who lie there, from tiny infants, soldiers, and victims of crime to those who perished in the great epidemics of Victorian England.
