Synopsis
Discover the theories and facts surrounding the Whitechapel murders in David Rumbelow's "The Complete Jack the Ripper"...It is 1888 in London's Whitechapel district, where one by one a group of prostitutes are brutally murdered. Opium smoking Inspector Fred Abberline is called upon to investigate these horrific murders and through his visions track down and trap Jack the Ripper. David Rumbelow's casebook sets the crimes firmly in their historical setting, examines the evidence comprehensively and scrupulously, disposes of a number of theories and legends and relates the murder to popular literature and to later similar sex crimes. In addition he has had the advantage of access to some of Scotland Yard's most confidential papers.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First edition. Hardback. 1st UK edn. SIGNED. Intro' by Colin Wilson. An examination of all the known evidence at the time, of all the facts and theories and nonsense that had ever been written about the Ripper. The author exploded a number of notions that had seemed to be attractive, and in particular the alleged Masonic conspiracy involving 'the highest in the land' is demolished once and for all. In examining the facts, one cannot ignore the mythology, and the book contains fascinating insights into the portrayal of the Ripper on stage and screen and on the printed page. The final chapter studies such 20th century imitators as Jack the Stripper (the Thames Nude Killer of the 1960s) - and Peter Kurten, the notorious Dusseldorf Ripper. Profusely Illus., Bibliog. and Index. 286pp. 8vo. h/back. INSCRIBED AND DOUBLE SIGNED (2nd signature to tp) BY DONALD RUMBELEOW TO 'MAC' THE CARTOONIST (aka Stanley McMurtry a British editorial cartoonist, and best known for his controversial work for the British Daily Mail newspaper from 1971 to 2018).
