JACK THE RIPPER - THE FINAL CHAPTER (SIGNED)

Hardback. SIGNED. Foreword by Paul Begg. When 'The Diary of Jack the Ripper' was uncovered in 1992, it caused an uproar amongst Ripper historians. Here was a document purporting to have been written by the Whitechapel Murderer, a document which could be traced back to Liverpool cotton merchant James Maybrick. Paul Feldman set out to prove it was a fake, but slowly became convinced that the diary could not be a hoax. Having spent 5-yrs and funded a massive research programme costing over £150,000, he felt he had now proved that the diary was genuine. This book tells the story of how Paul wove his way through the labyrinth of an official cover-up, established why the Ripper has always been linked with the Royals and the Masons, proved the infamous 'Ripper watch' genuine and discovered exactly why the diary turned up in Liverpool. Illus., Appendix, Bibliog. and Index. 385pp. lge. 8vo. h/back. SIGNED BY : PAUL FELDMAN, SHIRLEY HARRISON, PAUL BEGG, KEITH SKINNER AND MICHAEL BARRETT.
