Five devastating human stories and a dark and moving portrait of Victorian London--the untold lives of the women killed by Jack the Ripper

Polly, Annie, Elisabeth, Catherine, and Mary Jane are famous for the same thing, though they never met. They came from Fleet Street, Knightsbridge, Wolverhampton, Sweden, and Wales. They wrote ballads, ran coffeehouses, lived on country estates; they breathed ink dust from printing presses and escaped human traffickers.

What they had in common was the year of their murders: 1888. The person responsible was never identified, but the character created by the press to fill that gap has become far more famous than any of these five women.

For more than a century, newspapers have been keen to tell us that "the Ripper" preyed on prostitutes. Not only is this untrue, as historian Hallie Rubenhold has discovered, but it has prevented the real stories of these fascinating women from being told. Now, in this devastating narrative of five lives, Rubenhold finally sets the record straight, revealing a world not just of Dickens and Queen Victoria, but of poverty, homelessness, and rampant misogyny. They died because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time--but their greatest misfortune was to be born women.

Great one ingredient treats
Size: 1 lbs
I love that these are one ingredient treats. The quality is great, my dogs love the taste, and their appearance looks great without a bunch of additives. The texture is nice and the ridges in the cuts do help with cleaning my dogs teeth a bit. They are fairly expensive for what they are. These are great if you don’t have the time to make your own.

Only one ingredient
Size: 1-Pack (0.5 lbs)
I really like that. The product had only one ingredient which was sweet potatoes. They were well packaged in a reclosable bag. However, my dogs (a Morkie and a Malti-tzu) had no interest in them and would not even try it. I passed it on to someone else to try for their Shiba Inu.

Usually good, but not this time
Size: 1 lbs
The last bag was very hard but I am softening them up with “sugar bears”. When we first started getting them you could easily cut them & my girl loved them. Then we got a bag that molded within a couple weeks. I tried others but my girl didn’t like any as well as these. Eventually I came back to Dave’s & it was fine until this last bag & she wouldn’t eat them.
