Longmans, 1914
Days of My Years
Macnaghten, Sir Melville Leslie
London: Longmans & Green. 1914.
300pp. [Police and Forensic Science]
ISBN:

Casebook Review:

Macnaghten devotes a subchapter "Laying the Ghost of Jack the Ripper" to the Whitechapel Murders. Discusses each murder in turn and then concludes that the killer most likely committed suicide soon after the Kelly murder. Rare.
