The True History of Jack the Ripper

Guy Logan was active as a journalist during the latter part of the hunt for Jack the Ripper. He later wrote seven important books of essays on true crime, including Masters of Crime (1928). His literary career came to an end after a disastrous libel suit made by Baroness Abinger, whom Logan thought was dead and accused of murder. Jan Bondeson is a senior lecturer at Cardiff University. His many critically acclaimed books include Animal Freaks, Cabinet of Medical Curiosities, The London Monster ('Gripping' GUARDIAN), the best-selling Buried Alive: The Terrifying History of Our Most Primal Fear ('A little masterpiece of social history' MAIL ON SUNDAY) and Queen Victoria's Stalker ('Amazing' THE SUN). He lives in Newport in Wales.
