Here at last is the definitive source book on the true causes of death of public figures providing the ultimate demise of heroes and icons, politicians and celebrities, inventors and explorers, business leaders and sports figures, as well as the unlikely endings of radicals, murderers, feminists, Nobel Prize winners, and others.

The true cause of death is often the one omitted detail of history, but in fact reveals the most poignant snapshot of an individual's life.
