THE WHITECHAPEL MURDERS

Softcover. 1st Edn. Despite the Ripper's notoriety, the graphic and gruesome events of Victorian Whitechapel continues to make dramatic and compelling reading. The author has created, with the aid of recent developments in scholarship and research, a new perspective on these murders, and, with the atmosphere of authenticity, a new 'factional' version of the truth unfolds. From inside the killer's brain the author traces motive, compulsion and his twisted, agonised reasoning. Revealed from the diaries, letters and journals of James and Florie Maybrick, and told in the confessional first person, the reader swiftly and inexorably becomes a witness. 230pp. trade size soft cover. From the library of Paul Daniel, ex-editor of the 'Ripperologist' magazine (December 1996 No. 8 - February 2000 No. 27) and includes Paul's tipped-in to fep positive review, written for 'Ripperologist' magazine. V. lightly browned edges o/w Vgt+. A now scarce 1st edn.
