Around 1888, several women were brutally murdered in the London East End. The killer became famous as Jack the Ripper. He was never caught.
Even today, the case remains as intriguing as it was over a century ago.

As time passed, London and its East End changed quite a bit and few places still remain as they were in the Victorian era.
The authors of The London of Jack the Ripper: Then and Now take you on a pictorial tour of the most relevant spots, as they exist currently and what they looked like back then. Some very rare photographs are shown and for those interested in the case this book is of great value to get a better understanding of it all. The accompanying text is clear and objective and gives a brief but complete history.
The authors are true experts on the Jack the Ripper subject and it shows. Extensive search and effort has been put in this book and the outcome is as good as it can be.

If you ever took a Jack the Ripper tour you will relive it like never before and for those that do not have the opportunity to take a tour, this book really is the closest you can get. Come to think of it, it is even better!
Must!
