Softcover. The author originally intended this to be a souvenir guide for tourists, but during his research found the subject so interesting that he felt it might appeal to the 'armchair' audience as well. As a result the guide has been written for anyone interested in the darker areas of London's past. This had to include of course the East End and the Jack the Ripper murders. Also includes the mystery of " Jack the Stripper", The Krays, The Hangmen of London, and Executions. Profusely illus., 88pp. 4to. softcover. Patchily faded covers. Vg.
