Revised edition. 286 pp. 16 unnumbered pages of plates. Publisher's pictorial gloss cloth. Light shelfwear. Internally clean. A very good copy. $25. * This book was a notable addition to the Rip…perology genre, as it popularized the "Royal Conspiracy" theory, suggesting the murders were a British state-sanctioned cover-up to hide a secret, illegitimate marriage between Prince Albert Victor (grandson of Queen Victoria) and a working-class Catholic girl named Annie Crook. Although widely discredited by modern historians after the primary source, Joseph Gorman, admitted the story was a hoax, the book heavily inspired major pop culture works like the graphic novel and film From Hell.
