Social historian HallieRubenhold re-examines one of the world's most infamous true crime stories, sharing insight into the actual lives of five women who were victims of Jack the Ripper:
Each victim—Polly Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elisabeth Stride, Catherine “Kate” Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly—becomes more fully human in Rubenhold’s heartbreaking treatment of their lives. The book is organized into five parts, with each part telling a thorough and devastating story of one of these women.
Rubenhold claims these women “began their lives in deficit” because they were born female. They were born into working class families, but as girls they were considered a burden on the family. They would never earn the income of their brothers, so an education was unimportant. The best they could hope for was life as a domestic servant. Their labor was cheap, and, if they were left with children and no man to support them, survival was nearly impossible.
