Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack the Ripper Review: Not what I exprcted - Due to the poor advertisement I didn't realize it was written like a play. Otherwise it was a good story. Review: Historically fascinating - The earliest dated piece to depict Sherlock Holmes investigating the Whitechapel murders of 1888 is probably a French play, "Jack l'Éventreur" by Gaston Marot and Louis Péricaud, in 1889, now adapted into English by Frank J Morlock as "Sherlock Holmes vs Jack the Ripper". To be accurate, as Jean-Marc Lofficier says in his introduction, "the original play did not feature Sherlock Holmes and Nick Carter, but identifiable facsimiles thereof, for an audience that was already familiar with the Great English Detective and his indomitable American counterpart." If Mr Morlock's version is faithful, then the characters clearly do represent Holmes and Carter - which is remarkable, as in 1889 the former had appeared only in "A Study in Scarlet". The play, like the anonymous 1908 short story that accompanies it, is fascinating as an example of late Victorian melodrama, and unintentionally hilarious in its complete disregard of anything resembling the facts of the case. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #7,577,262 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #18,025 in Traditional Detective Mysteries (Books) #121,763 in Crime Thrillers (Books) #2,158,613 in Literature & Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (9) | | Dimensions | 5 x 0.52 x 8 inches | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 1612270387 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1612270388 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 228 pages | | Publication date | September 30, 2011 | | Publisher | Hollywood Comics | ## Images ![Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack the Ripper - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/413WR6Z1J8L.jpg) ![Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack the Ripper - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Thj6lJ6OL.jpg) ![Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack the Ripper - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41mC20umgVL.jpg) ![Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack the Ripper - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Eegzc8+KL.jpg) ![Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack the Ripper - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7158t74OEbL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐ Not what I exprcted *by G***G on April 4, 2015* Due to the poor advertisement I didn't realize it was written like a play.
