It might be important to note that Ripper 1 is a children's book, albeit one of over 300 pages! I'm not sure where it has anything to do with jolly Jack though.

Mike Covell · 12-27-2010, 08:42 AM

Thanks Paul, Perhaps it will be along the lines of the Point Horror series, introducing Jack to a new generation.

Don't forget the two Jack TV documentaries slated to be broadcast in January -

Jack the Ripper: The German Suspect (3 January, National Geographic. Trevor Marriott's suspect - presumably Feigenbaum; http://natgeotv.com/uk/jack-the-ripp...derer-revealed)

Jack the Ripper: The Definitive Story (11th and 12th January, FIVE - http://uk-tv-guide.com/pick-of-the-d...initive-story/)

Looks like its time to make a Mooch Alert.

Nemo · 12-27-2010, 10:51 AM

Great list Mike - I wouldn't mind all of them

Spiro's book is a bit pricey for me

I'd like to see Rob House's info from Poland on Kosminsky

...and thanks for introducing me to David Wilson, Britain's foremost expert on serial killers (described as...)

Hi Nemo,
Pity he doesn't keep this up to date...

The M. J. Trow title sounds interesting. Is he going down the R. Michael Gordon route and blaming Mann for them?

Paul · 12-27-2010, 11:40 AM

I very much doubt it, although he may blame 'a' man for them. He's just co-authored a book on the Tudors - pretty good too - and has at least one other book coming out in 2011 (in the Maxwell series). He also makes an appearance in The Definitive Story; keep an eye open....!
