Tracking a person for many miles through wilderness and urban terrain is an art still practiced daily by some officers of the U.S. Border Patrol. Jack Kearney spent twenty-one years honing his skill of "Mantracking" by catching illegal entrants into the United States, finding lost persons in search and rescue operations, and assisting law enforcement agencies in criminal investigations from arson to murder. In addition, he spent many years teaching the art of tracking and devising the exercises listed in this book with which interested persons can self-teach themselves without needing the guidance of an expert tracker. Developing a proficiency in tracking skills can be an invaluable lifesaver for military, law enforcement, and search and rescue personnel. Although this book is principally about tracking people, it has been widely acclaimed by many famous and respected big game hunters. In one of the glowing reviews the book received, former Executive Editor of "Guns Ammo Magazine", Elmer Keith, declared, "Every hunter should have this book and study it." Bill Jordan's book, Mostly Huntin' devotes more than a page to extolling Mr. Kearney's skill and the virtues of his book and recommends its purchase "without reservation".

So who was Jack the Ripper? No-one in the annals of crime is capable of arousing such passionate debate as the perpetrator of the Whitechapel Murders in 1888. Was he a demented Royal, a Masonic assassin, a sexually-frustrated artist, a member of the Czarist secret police, a crazed reformist or even an escaped gorilla? More than a century has passed since this unknown killer murdered East End prostitutes under the very noses of the police and yet we seem no closer to uncovering the Ripper's identity. Countless volumes have been written by warring researchers, seemingly unable to agree even on the number of his victims. Is it possible that we will ever know the truth or is the Ripper destined to remain an enigma, his place in history secured as both an English-heritage crime icon and a universal bogeyman? This revised and updated edition contains a summary of Jack's crimes, victims and the ill-fated police investigation. It considers many of the Ripper's proposed identities, bringing you up to date with the latest suspects and includes a guide to the Ripper's many fictional outings, from The Lodger to From Hell.
