Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Hardback. 1st edition, SIGNED. Foreword by Donald Rumbelow. One of the most comprehensive books ever written on Jack the Ripper. Compiled in encyclopedic format by 3 of the world's leading experts on the subject, the book contains a wealth of (at the time) new information, many previously unpublished photographs, and details about the hitherto unidentified police suspect Michael Ostrog. The book threw fresh light on the multifarious theories, describes the suspects, gives details of the policemen, politicians and innocent bystanders caught up in the case - providing a wealth of topographical details. By examining various aspects of Victorian society, it also puts the crimes in their proper historical context thereby helping to explain why they created such a sensation at the time and why they continue to exert such a fascination well over a century later. Illus. plus Index of Victims; Index of Suspects; Index of Policemen; Index of Books, Writers and Articles on Jack the Ripper; and General Index. One of the key books on Jack the Ripper, which I would recommend to anyone just starting out on the quest for 'Jack'. 335pp. large 8vo. h/back. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY KEITH SKINNER, with tipped-in label SIGNED BY DONALD RUMBELOW. From the library of Paul Daniel, ex-editor of the 'Ripperologist' magazine (December 1996 No. 8 - February 2000 No. 27) with his name rubber stamp, and date in green felt tip to bep. With the usual browned pp., small newspaper cutting to fpd o/w Nr. F. in Nr. F. protected pcdw. Scarce in h/back with signatures. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 4983
