Does anyone know what became of Ripperana? I used to have a subscription but after I moved to Suffolk, I tried to resubscribe but haven't had any luck contacting Nick.
Is he still publishing Ripperana or has it gone to an ezine format or has it gone to the great paper bin in the sky?
Just curious.
I wish I could have heard his talk on the post mortem on Mary Kelly and his axe info. I find medical and forensic stuff fascinating.
Thanks

It is indeed "The Journal Sherlock Holmes Would Have Read".

It's my favorite Ripper magazine, but one needs to understand that in many respects it stands alone in its own little genre.

I'm reminded of what Bill Graham said of the Grateful Dead. "It's not just that they're the best at what they do. It's that they're the ONLY ones at what they do."

Very, VERY well-said, Sir Robert.

I felt that Ripperana concentrated far too much on other modern crimes lifted from newspapers and the majority of its Ripper information consisted of criticisms of every other organisation, book and magazine.

Sorry to be a party pooper but there IS another side to the coin.
