nuska 's review for:
Jack the Ripper
by Mark Whitehead
"Jack was born just as the popular press was finding its feet and they helped each other inmeasurably. He gave them murders to boost their circulation and they, in turn, made him into a legend. No detail was too titillating or unpleasant to be left unreported or undistorted" (9).
"The only character who doesn't seem to have tracked the Ripper [in Sherlock Holmes] is Mrs. Hudson". (82).
"He [the Ripper] has met Doctor Who's Doctor on at least two occasions: 'The Pit' (1993) and 'Matrix' (1998)". (82).
This book is a good compilation of all important things related with Jack the Ripper's case. I'm not much into true crime stories but, as part of popular knowledge, I find the Ripper particulary interesting. There are a lot of things written about this case but this book is useful to have a quite complete overview.
