Fine cloth copy in a near fine dust wrapper with faint wear to the headband. Not price-clipped. Remains well-preserved overall; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description: 192 pages ; 22 cm. Notes: The book is a significant early work in Ripperology, proposing the Russian surgeon Dr. Alexander Pedachenko as the killer and also introducing the artist Walter Sickert as a suspect. The Spectator's 1959 review was critical of McCormick's prose but acknowledged the book's comprehensive research. Includes bibliographical references (pages 187-188) and index.
