Jack the Ripper's London recreates the creepy, oppressive atmosphere of London's East End in the
brief period in the 1880s when a killer stalked the night. The identity
of the murderer known as Jack the Ripper, who killed five (or more)
women, has never been discovered, though thousands of theories have been
postulated, some more outlandish than others. Discover where the
murders took place, how the killer outwitted the police, and the many
legends and conspiracy theories that have built up around the subject.
This absorbing guide to one of the city's more infamous periods is an
essential companion for Londoner and tourist alike.
