This is the original 1974 book of Dr. Pedro Ara.He did the embalm of the body of Eva Duarte de Peron.
Evita`s weight was 36 kg (79 lb.) when she died, in June 26th of 1952. She died at the age of 33.
Dr. Pedro Ara was a professor of anatomy,his work was occasionally referred to as "the art of death". His highly advanced embalming technique consisted of replacing the blood of the cadaver with glycerine, which retained all organs including the brain and created a very lifelike appearance, giving the corpse the appearance of "artistically rendered sleep". Dr. Ara was known in Buenos Aires society for his work. Among the people he had embalmed was Spanish composer Manuel de Falla.
Dr. Ara claims that his embalming of Evita's corpse began on the night of her death and that by the next morning "the body of Eva Peron was completely and infinitely incorruptible" and therefore suitable for display to the public.
