[GUT]

Just ordered Monty's book, have no idea when it's coming, and Tom's book that I will have in my hands as soon as my brother delivers it...end of January. Book are good things.

Thank you.

Ive been told that its hitting the US on Monday. Then again, I have been told many things.

The date Amazon lists for us is the 19th so Monday is the day. If only it would release as a kindle book on the same day. I'm sure Tom knows a guy who for a few quid will get it set up for you.

Got is this for Christmas and it is excellent! Shines a light into many a dark corner and full of fascinating police history. Very highly recommended!

Best wishes

Have I said Neil Bell's Capturing JtR again not really even a "Ripper" book, but a ripper of a book

Cheers GUT.

Not for me to say you are correct. Not for me to say at all.

I am very interested in this one as well. As soon as it comes out as a Kindle book I will have a go at it.

You are subscribing to Ripperologist magazine, aren't you? If not, that's step #1. And it's free.

Yes I am. I also have all the old Casebook Examier issues as well. Though I admit, even though my interest in the Examiner was because of your La Grande article, I have yet to read it because both the Examiner and Ripperologist are so dense with information.

Fortunately I am smart enough to lean on the knowledge of others who have done the wading already to try and save myself as much harm as possible.

They have. Pretty much every Ripper book, in fact. All of which (but one) who have him as a witness and not JTR. Lechmere's still a better suspect than most who are peddled in the books you're about to be wading knee deep in.

Thanks. That actually makes it more interesting to me! Such a great approach. I wish someone would do the same for Lechmere. Oops. Slipped out.

Word to the wise. JTR At Last argues that Chapman was NOT the Ripper, so not your typical suspect book. It is exquisitely researched and written however so please don't take this as a suggestion not to get it. You most certainly should! But going into a book expecting one thing and getting another might spoil it so I thought I should let you know.

Just wanted to post and say that after Gut highly recommended JTR At Last? I checked on Amazon and if you have Prime in the U.S. (maybe elsewhere) you can borrow the book for free to read on your kindle or app. It will be my first suspect book I read and after the high praise I look forward to it.

Reading through this thread has caused me to go on a bit of a buying spree too. I'm sure it has had the same effect on multiple others as well.
