In the real life fictionalized in these pages, a young law professor at UCLA Law School, Edgar A. Jones, Jr., with no experience or desire to be an actor, by happenstance was persuaded in a telephone call by the producer of a popular local television courtroom program he had never seen. He flubbed the audition script, but by ad-libbing, he wound up a television "star" and the "Judge" with 20 million loyal viewers watching him each week for six and a half years (1958-1964) on three different American Broadcasting Company afternoon and evening award winning courtroom programs: "Traffic Court," "Day in Court," and "Accused."

A comprehensive manual for acting and theater, discussing improvisation, voice projection, breathing exercises, script analysis, and technical aspects of theater production.
This book is about the struggles of Italian immigrants in Hartford, Connecticut back in the 1930s and growing up as the son of Italian immigrants. Its about coping with poverty and a hostile environment and surviving. Its about family love, parenting and instilling sound principles in our young. Its about self-reliance and self-esteem, establishing worthy goals and working hard and applying raw determination to attain those goals. Its about the importance of education and the need to become directly involved in local government and community affairs. Its about laughing, learning and improvising. Its about community theatre, about searching for and developing hidden talents, about devoting untold quantities of energy and applying imagination and fantasy to the creation of theatrical illusions and imagery. Its about the immense satisfaction one can derive from striving to become proficient as an actor, director and producer of live theatre. And, finally, its about magically transforming the flaccid and inert written word into vital third dimensional action and, from the empathy thereby produced, experiencing the exhilarating power and gratification returned by an appreciative audience.
A shocking and brutal murder had taken place in the city in February that year, and the words 'Jack Ripper is at the back of this door' were found written in chalk on a door at the scene of the crime. When he was arrested, the accused, William Bury, admitted that he was 'afraid he would be arrested as Jack the Ripper'. The police investigation uncovered some disturbing details. William Bury was a small dark-haired man who was known to have been violent towards women. He had been born and brought up in the Midlands but had moved to the East End of London in the late autumn of 1887. On 20 January 1889, he and his wife travelled by boat to Dundee. This meant that he had arrived in London before the start of the Jack the Ripper murders and had left around the same time that they ceased. Could this be coincidence, people wondered. Could it also be a coincidence that the murder in Dundee carried all the hallmarks of a 'ripper' murder? In the month before the trial, the local newspapers in Dundee began to run sensational stories linking the accused with the notorious Whitechapel murders. When the trial opened to a packed courtroom, many in the public gallery were wondering if the man standing in the dock was none other than Jack the Ripper himself. In this sensational and ground-breaking book, Euan Macpherson presents the evidence that the long arm of the law really did catch up with Jack the Ripper ... in a dingy basement flat in Dundee in the cold winter months of early 1889.
