    Great Review by Mick Reed. Well done. Very well written and clear summary of the whole debacle.

        Fantastic job by Mick Reed. Had Edwards' book been near as compelling or well-prepared, it would have many more five star reviews on Amazon. Then again, if Edwards possessed Reed's scruples, I dare say the book wouldn't exist at all at this juncture.

        Yours truly,

        Tom Wescott

            A great issue

            This a real goodie, Adam. Thanks to the Rip team.

            Much to read yet, but Jon's editorial - wow! Well done.

            And the extract from Neil's book makes me impatient for mine to arrive once it's published. Looking good, Neil.

              Agreed and Mick's and the "Dressed to kill".

              Maybe the best Ripperologist I've read.

              There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

                      I've implied it at the other place, and I'll say it outright here; this is yet another great issue...I'm still hard-pushed to believe, even with the high grade contributors who are out there and the top-quality editorial work, that such an amazing magazine can routinely turn up in our mailboxes every couple of months...

                      Stunning quality, and totally free of charge...and moreover the backnumbers from Issue 62 onwards are also available free of charge...bloody unbelievable...

                      I said it there and I'll say it here until the cows come home...heartfelt thanks to everyone involved...

                      All the best

                        I'm slacking hard on my reading. I haven't even finished Neil's article yet. Hopefully will get to that soon.

                        Yours truly,

                          Don't hurry. He basically cut and pasted a lot of Trevor's posts.

                              How do you subscribe to the Ripperologist? I've tried three times on-line. No luck. I'd love to read it.
