Jack l'Eventreur: Scènes Vécues Jean Dorsenne Les Editions de France, 1935. [Reprint] Cappella Archive, 1999. Originally published in 1935, "Jack l'Eventreur" is considered one of the scarcest Ripper volumes on the market. Fortunately, Molly Whittington-Egan has published an English translation of the original, recently released by Cappella Publishers in the UK. The reprint is handsomely bound in hardcover, with a laminated dustjacket and ribbon bookmark. The translation itself is seamlessly crafted and a pleasure to read -- very highly recommended! The text itself is a mix of fiction and fact, providing a wonderful insight into the public's ideas on the murders only fifty years after they took place. Copies can be ordered *only* from the publisher: Cappella Archive Foley Terrace Gt Malvern Worcestershire WR14 4RQ England The price is be £24 plus p&p (£1.50 in UK). The ISBN is 1-902918-02-9. US customers should contact Cappella for ordering information. Also see: http://www.cappella.demon.co.uk
