Casebook Review:

A worthwhile book, championing M.J. Druitt as the Ripper. Not altogether convincing, but some fantastic research went into the work. Perhaps the most fascinating aspect was the tracing of the enigmatic "East End Murderer" pamphlet; unsuccessful in its goal, but the search in itself provides for great reading. Recommended.
