  • "This book is a detailed and meticulously researched encyclopedia on all aspects of Jack the Ripper, one of the world's most famous, and mysterious, serial killers. The legacy of Jack the Ripper fascinates and horrifies us even today. Who was Jack the Ripper? That question has been the focus of at least 100 books, 40 films, countless articles, and a half-dozen websites since this famous serial killer began murdering London prostitutes more than a century ago. Now readers can try solving this long-standing mystery for themselves. This encyclopedia lists all the likely victims, with details about the evidence linking their deaths to Jack the Ripper. It compiles and connects a myriad of facts, myths, evidence, eyewitness accounts, and police investigations. The encyclopedia includes a list of more than 100 witnesses and what each one saw, descriptions of the locations where the murders took place and the police officers involved in the investigations, contemporary newspaper accounts, and psychological profiles and physical descriptions of The Ripper. In the final chapter, John J. Eddleston reveals his own deductions about "whodunnit," narrowing the list of suspects to one man."
