Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. Hardback. SIGNED. 1st US Edn. The book proposes that the infamous 1888 Whitechapel murderer was an American, Francis Tumblety, a quack doctor with a criminal record. The authors base their theory on a letter from Inspector John Littlechild, who named Tumblety as a likely suspect due to his extreme misogyny and suspicious behaviour. Tumblety, in London during the murders, was briefly detained but fled to the U.S. after being granted bail, coinciding with the end of the killings. The book vividly depicts Victorian London's grim East End and the terror of the Ripper's crimes, supported by extensive research, including newspaper reports and Tumblety's documented activities in America. A significant contribution to Ripperology, engaging readers with its detective-like narrative. With tipped-in label SIGNED BY STEWRT P. EVANS. Illus., Appendices, Sources, Select Bibliog. and Index. 293pp. 8vo. h/back. With 2 small black remainder mks. to lower edge o/w Nr. F. in Vg+ dw. signed by author. Seller Inventory # 20693
