Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. In 1888 Jack the Ripper made the headlines with a series of horrific murders that remain unsolved to this day. But most killers are not shadowy figures stalking the streets with a lust for blood. Many are ordinary citizens driven to the ultimate crime by circumstance, a fit of anger or a desire for revenge. Their crimes, overshadowed by the few, sensational cases, are ignored, forgotten or written off. This book examines all the known murders in London in 1888 to build a picture of society. Who were the victims? How did they live, and how did they die? Why did a husband batter his wife to death after she failed to get him a cup of tea? How many died under the wheels of a horse-driven cab? Just how dangerous was London in 1888? The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Condizione: As New. : En 1888, Jack el Destripador acaparó los titulares con una serie de horribles asesinatos que siguen sin resolverse hasta el día de hoy.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. Condition: (see pics.) The book and dust jacket are both in like new condition. Synopsis: What would English history look like from the gutter? The past is traditionally told from the viewpoint of kings and queens, politicians and pioneers. But what about the people struggling to survive at the very lowest levels of society? Surely the poor are just as much a part of our heritage? A Pauper's History of England covers 1,000 years of poverty from Domesday right up to the twentieth century, via the Black Death and the English Civil War. It uses contemporary sources creatively to give the reader an idea of just what life was like for the peasants, paupers, beggars and the working poor as England developed from a feudal society into a wealthy superpower. Experience the past from a different perspective: tour the England of the Domesday Book, make a solemn Franciscan vow of poverty, join the Peasant s Revolt of 1381, converse with Elizabethan beggars and learn their secret language, meet the inmates of Bedlam Hospital and Bridewell Prison, enjoy a gin-soaked Georgian night of debauchery, spend the night in a workhouse, go slumming in Victorian London". …
