From the Foreword - "As an honoured place for the dead, graveyards also hold a fascination for the living. Many excellent volumes have been produced on the social and historical aspect of cemeteries yet, to date, little has been prepared which addresses the practical needs for their continued well-being. Now, after 3 years work, this volume begins to look at the topic. Ingval Maxwell's practical approach is at the heart of the publication. In response to the emerging demand for a greater awareness of the issues at stake, this knowledge was initially committed to paper in 1997 to be ably developed by Ratish Nanda. The text was further expanded and enhanced by Dennis Urquhart to create this well-illustrated Practitioners' Guide. The historic background was drafted by Dr Richard Fawcett and the Inventory of Listed Scottish Graveyards prepared by Dr Debbie Mays. Practical information on five Case Studies was compiled by Stephen Gordon, whilst Mr and Mrs F Bennetts' voluntary recording work is included as the sixth. Although fundamentally Scottish in outlook, and predominantly using photographs from the authors' own collections, this joint approach aims to ensure an international relevance for the broad range of topics addressed.".
