Jack the Ripper de is an excellent site. A couple of months ago I came across this French website: http://jackleventreur.free.fr/ it's an excellent site, even if you don't read French have a look at the crime scene computer reconstructions- they have rigged it so you can see where the local bobby ought to be at a given time. Excellent effort the website designers have made.

Please post that URL in the URL's forum as appropriate, then.


Thomas:

Those are really great illustrations. I think your site is already listed in the URL's forum, but if not, please add it for all to use.

Thanks.

Thomas
Grand sketches. The Radcliffe Stairs looks just like a dim little path I stumbled down to reach the Thames during one of my East End jaunts. If I ignored the modern skyline on the 'tother side o'water,' it was pure 1888. I wish I could remember where that was.

Thanks so much for sharing.
