Excellent Book
This excellent book is now published, Jack the Ripper and the Case For Scotland Yard's Prime Suspect by Robert House (foreword by Roy Hazelwood), Hoboken, NJ, John Wiley & Sons Inc., 2011.Originally posted by Chris View Post
For too long the important suspect Kosminski has not had a book devoted to him; but now we have one. Written by an author who knows and understands his subject this is a must for all Ripper book collectors. Make sure that you secure a copy as soon as possible.SPE
Treat me gently I'm a newbie. -
Going to order one now

This is the book that has kept me excited for a long time - too bad I won't be able to secure one yet until it is released because my dear brother would also like to order a book and we would save on postage on Amazon. Typical!
I am majorly anxious to read this since Kozminski is my favourite suspect of the case and it would answer so many questions! I cannot thank you enough Rob for all the research and time you put into this much needed book! Thank you!

Can't wait to peruse...
This book is essential as Rob has just opened my eyes to some new thinking. I just hope my girlfriend doesn't intercept it as she already thinks me mad..............

Ha! My family all think the same! In fact, my classmates find it a topic to thoroughly ridicule! This will be something that I have my nose in obsessively for many months I can predict! And it should be perfect for my comic sketches that I am making based on the Killer being Kozminski. It should be great reference!Originally posted by GregBaron View PostComment

I'm sure this book will be an essential JTR book for the Polish Jew theory. Speaking personally, I'll be very interested in the genealogical research, but less so in the mental health aspects, since such things as schizophrenia and sociopathy seem to me to be rather hazy concepts. But it will be great to have all the info on Aaron collected in one place. Good luck with it, Rob.Comment

Abby - do you mean that it's arrived? On Amazon UK it states that the title has not yet been released but is available for pre-order. Sorry if I am getting mixed up and confused here, but I thought it was released on the 31st May.Comment

Just to clarify a bit.
It was scheduled to come out on May 3 in the US, but in fact the book was shipping about a week and a half prior to this date. The release date in the UK is a bit later for some reason (May 31), but I assume it might be shipping a bit earlier there like it did in the US.

Thanks Rob!
@Abby - Darn you Americans! *Grrrrr*
Strange that the book came out in the US first, and not England. :/ I am so excited for this book that I fear I cannot wait any longer, and this is just taunting me! xDComment
