Focusing on Jack the Ripper’s victims—not only the five murdered women, but the case's other eventual casualtiesThe Ripper's legacy left many more victims in its wake than he could have ever imagined. From the Royal Family and the British government to the London Police and the London poor, the list of "other" victims that happened as a direct result of the Jack the Ripper murders goes on and on. The members of the Whitechapel Society have painstakingly researched original sources for many years and are only interested in providing the true facts. Each victim is looked at in detail by an expert, making this new book the ultimate force in Ripper research, and the book is illustrated with exceptional Victorian line drawings and previously unpublished photographs.
