Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First edition. Hardback. For over 100 years Montague Druitt has been one of the leading Jack the Ripper suspects. This book provides the first detailed biography of his life. From a comfortable upbringing in Dorset, Druitt went on to a classical education at Winchester College and Oxford. He subsequently took a job at a private school, and later qualified in London as a barrister. His cricketing skills provided him with a network of social contacts and he played for a variety of strong club sides, in particular Blackheath. His membership of the MCC provided him with access to half of England's aristocracy. Suddenly from this idyll life, Druitt was sacked by his school. A month later in December 1888 he was found drowned in the Thames - was it suicide or murder? In the autumn of the same year 5 terrible murders took place in the East End of London. They became known as the Jack the Ripper murders. Years after his death the finger of suspicion was pointed at Druitt by the Chief Constable of the Metropolitan Police. Druitt's private life has been linked with members of the Cambridge Apostles, a shadowy society of an intellectual and often homosexual elite. He knew the Duke of Clarence, himself a Ripper suspect. This book touches on the worlds of art, politics, sport, literature, and the social order. It is a real story about a real person caught up in the shenanigans of the upper reaches of late Victorian society. With 50 illustrations, 228pp. 8vo. h/back. F. in F. dw. A fairly heavy book which will require additional postage if shipped overseas.…

Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. Hardback, 1st edn. What was it that led to a cultured classicist, schoolmaster and barrister being implicated in the most famous unsolved murders of all time? One of the most popular of all Ripper suspects, Montague Druitt appears on the surface an unlikely serial killer. Born into a comfortable bourgeois family, he was educated at Winchester and New College, Oxford, and played cricket for a number of strong club sides. But there was another side to the agreeable Mr Druitt and, in 1894, Chief Constable Sir Melville Macnaghten named Druitt as the murderer. Druitt moved in the artistic and aristocratic circles that overlapped with London's secretive homosexual culture and included another Ripper suspect, the Duke of Clarence. in 1888, at the height of the furore about the Ripper murders, Druitt was summarily and mysteriously dismissed from his post at a boys' school. A few weeks later, shortly after the killing of Mary Kelly, the Ripper's last victim, Druitt was found drowned in the Thames. But was his death suicide or murder? With 35 illus., Appendix, Bibliog. and Index. 208pp. 8vo. h/back. F. in Vg+ dw. which has a small closed tear to top r/h corner of fr. cover. …
