Wow, this is so well researched! Fascinating too! It goes beyond the iconic Five victims attributed to Jack the Ripper and tells about others before them, during and after in great detail. In GREAT detail! Like one lady died from maybe a heart attack from reading the newspaper about the killings! The newspaper had grizzly art work depicting the murder scene.
Although the book is just facts, it also gives the reader a feel for the life there at that time. The filth, the roads, the daily grind the poor would have to deal with consistently.
