Seller: MURDER BY THE BOOK, Warwick, RI, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hard Cover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 1st US edition, with complete number line beginning with 1. Near fine in dust jacket, not price clipped, with protective mylar cover. Remainder dot at top of page edges, remains of previous store label at front end paper. The truth in this tale about a poisoner who roamed London's Lambeth area in 1891-92, giving "medicine" to prostitutes and dooming them to slow, agonizing deaths, is more interesting than the fiction. Based on well-researched historic records, Thomas's version of the madman hoping to rival Jack the Ripper is, unfortunately, flawed by its very accuracy. Book. Seller Inventory # 019294
