Just rip-off of the Wikipedia article
All this book has is the main Wikipedia article about Jack the Ripper printed out in book form... or at least the version of that article that was online when this book was put together. While Wikipedia uses a license that allows people to republish its content, which means it's not illegal for someone to have done this, certainly as a reader there's no reason to pay $10 to get what you can get for free online. More importantly, if you look it up online you can click links to read much more detailed information that's available in several additional articles Wikipedia has about Jack the Ripper suspects, victims, books, films and so forth, which this publisher didn't even bother collecting together.

Simply put, there's no reason to buy this, or the other books by this publisher, unless you just like paying good money for a watered down version of something that's available for free online.
