The Diary of a Resurrectionist, 1811-1812 : To Which Are Added an Account of the Resurrection Men in London and a Short History of the Passing of the Anatomy Act

This book delves into the history of resurrectionists and the reason why doctors need them. This is a fascinating subject and shows how doctors got into trouble. They needed to dissect the corpse so that their students could learn, but the gallows weren't providing enough, so they had to turn to the resurrectionists. For those who are interested in the resurrection, or even general history, this book is very worth reading.
