      To barnflatwyngarde

      Thanks very much for that sound advice. I will confer with my publisher about it.

      To Steadmund Brand

      Yes, hopefully next year.

      To Nick Spring

      Thanks for the support. There will be new photos and new sources/evidence published for the first time that will, hopefully, make it fresh and worthwhile.

        Best wishes on the new book. I will be most interested about the new evidence on Druitt.

          Thanks, mate!

          It's the real deal: a missing piece of the jigsaw now found after 124 years which terminates the modern paradigm that 1) the real Druitt was unknown to Sir Melville Macnaghten, and 2) Druitt's family were unaware of the Ripper allegation against one of their own.

            G'day Jonathan

            Any idea if I'll be able to get it in Aus, or am I going to have to pay more for postage than the book.

            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.

              And 3) that there is no way Macnaghten could have shared the Dorset solution with his Scotland Yard colleagues.

              To GUT

              I'm sorry I don't know yet, but I am pretty sure that it will be released in March at Barnes and Noble bookshops in Sydney and Melbourne.

                I am honestly not sure where Barnes & Noble are in Sydney, but I'll cetainly make a trip down the F3 if they have it.

                          Thanks Steadmund

                          Gut, I too had shuddered at the 'Ides of March' anniversary, but it's debut seems to have been moved to March 30th, at least in the UK:

                            Not only the Ides of March, but Steadmund's birthday, sounds like a good idea to move it back a fortnight.

                              Hi all,

                              I take it the book will also be available in the Barnes & Noble stores in New York City and State.

                              I would not worry too much about the date "March 15th". Nobody here is connected to the Julian family of ancient Rome, nor claiming (I hope!) to set up a dictatorship of the government and empire (is there any?) of that city.

                              The "American Brutus" was (according to his biographer) was John Wilkes Booth.

                              Jeff

                                reminds me of a great old joke....

                                A Roman walks into a bar, holds up two fingers and says " I'll have five beers" (it's ok... nobody laughs when I tell it in person either)

                                So March 30th now eh? ok... I have to think of something else to tell the woman to get me for my birthday,
