Premium Review The Diary of Jack the Ripper - Shirley Harrison: Nice to meet you, my name is Jack (980 words)
by - written on 02/03/04 (Very useful, 58 readings)
Rating:

Now I am intrigied by true life crime. I think it must come my ex profession in the forces. I like to read true life crime and try and understand why they did it or what makes them tick. I am not a Barbara Bradford Taylor or a Mills and Boon sort of person. I like criminiolgy more and although I will admit it, these are practically only one of a few books I will read. I do like autobiographies but I get a feel for a book and there are few books that make me want to read all night. I am useless at reading a book and I am an impatient sort of person as I normally read the back page ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review A prankster writes a book (218 words)

The Diary of Jack the Ripper is one of the least informative books of the many written on this subject. In my opinion it is not even well researched, if the author has carried out extensive researched then all the evidence which does not fit into their theory (and there is a lot of this) has been conveniently lost or forgoten about. I notice one argument for the validity of this story is that, there would have been uproar in the academic community if indeed this was a hoax. A great many ripperologist's have questioned the validity of this book, one a very good friend of mine. I was in the room when he recieved a phone call from the (then) owner of the ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review The Diary of Jack the Ripper - Shirley Harrison: Another book about Jack the Ripper. (355 words)
by - written on 04/02/01 (Very useful, 99 readings)
Rating:

This is another book about Jack the Ripper. But it has a twist to it. A diary turns up to possibly shed light on a mystery, almost a century old, that is so hideous. One can’t help but be interested in it. It's about Jack the Ripper and the Whitechapel murders--or more specifically a diary supposedly by Jack himself. Five dead prostitutes, an unknown madman, and now, a diary. Makes for interesting reading, right? In 1976, one man turns over a diary to a friend. This man takes it home and starts reading it with his wife. They discover the unthinkable: Jack the Ripper’s diary. This book presents the facts of the case. But it takes into ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Let's put you straight (170 words)
by - written on 17/08/00 (Very useful, 25 readings)
Rating:

The Diary of Jack the Ripper is a modern, 20th century hoax. This is the opinion of by far the overwhelming majority of Ripperologists. When you have read all inquest reports, police and home office files, newspaper reports and correspondence of the time (most of which I have on microfilm here in my home) it becomes apparent that the story revealed in the diary is simply that...a story bearing little resemblence to the actual facts of the murders of those poor women in 1888. In addition, it contains many modern myths about the murders, which clearly shows that the information was gleaned from books in the 1980s rather than events in the 1880s. ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review The Diary of Jack the Ripper - Shirley Harrison: DIARY of JACK THE RIPPER (175 words)
by - written on 30/06/00 (Very useful, 70 readings)
Rating:

Proof that this is the real killer! How many times have we heard that? This book has you convinced...it`s like you have been playing detective yourself, throughout all the articles, books film etc on the subject....and when you read this book, it`s like you`ve cracked the case. I have since read an article saying this book is a fake!?? is it though!!? In the article, it said why it is fake, and I checked it out, their reasons didn`t hold with me. I am now quite happy to believe every word in this book. And if it was fake surely there would`ve been more of an outcry about it..even a TV program...cos` it was a big seller. ...  Read the complete review
