With any sort of luck besides the "worst of luck," the next issue of the New Independent Review should be in subscribers' mailboxes next week. Those who have not yet signed up may get subscription information at: http://newindependentreview.com/ as you'll not want to miss this upcoming issue.
Leading off, Nicholas Connell writes about crime historian Hargrave Lee Adams, of whom "Fleet Street editors eagerly published the reports by this writer, who was on friendly, personal terms with Senior Officers at Scotland Yard . . ."
Michael Hawley presents the second part of his article about Charles A. Dunham, a reconsideration of the tale of Dr. Tumblety's anatomical collection. "It is an intriguing prospect that the motive or inspiration behind the Whitechapel killings may have been the Ripper visiting freak-museums," writes the author.
There is a double-dip from Jonathan Hainsworth this time around as he turns his attention to a new source for the story of the West of England MP who named Druitt as the Ripper. As he explains "Just two days before Frances Coles was murdered -- but not mutilated . . . a potential scoop broke in The Bristol Times and Mirror." Plus, the publication of the Aberconway version of the Macnaghten memoranda has prompted Jonathan to write "Aberconway needs to be understood in its historical context or else it will remain cast adrift rather than seen for what it is . . ."
There will also be the regular features, including columns by Adam Went, who writes of Frederick Deeming and Lionel Druitt while indulging in some daydreams, and Don Souden ponders why Phoebe Atwood Taylor stopped writing about Asey Mayo at such a young age.
