Best book on Bury?

[Sam Flynn]

I'd read Macpherson first, if I were you. Beadle's book is very well written, but he somewhat over-eggs his argument, in my view. He also has several chapters on the deficiencies in other suspect-based theories. Again, these are well done, although some might quail at his critical tone (I don't, personally). The irony is that the case he makes against Bury is hardly watertight, and it's just as full of speculation and "stretched points" as any other. I much prefer Macpherson's more understated approach.

I am thinking of buying a book based around Bury being the Ripper and was wondering which one would be best to get - Beadles or McPhersons? I know it would be easier to buy both but thought I would ask the opinions of the experts first.

Thanks
