The Case Of The Unknown Woman: The Story Of One Of The Most Intriguing Murder Mysteries Of The Nineteenth CenturyThis is a fascinating tale based on an actual event that began on March 26, 1887, when a young woman was found murdered in a field on the outskirts of Rahway, New Jersey.

Alexander Shipley has provided a detailed history of the investigation into this murder, including numerous identifications of the victim and several confessions to this horrendous crime.

This is a fascinating tale based on an actual event that began on March 26, 1887, when a young woman was found murdered in a field on the outskirts of Rahway, New Jersey. She had been bludgeoned about the face, and her throat had been cut from ear to ear.

F. Alexander Shipley has provided a detailed history of the investigation into this murder, including numerous identifications of the victim and several confessions to this horrendous crime. Thousands of individuals, many of whom had a missing family member or friend, thronged to the local morgue, eager to catch a glimpse of the victim in hopes of identifying the remains.

Some have speculated there is a possible link between this dastardly deed and the crimes of Jack the Ripper.

About the Author

F. Alexander Shipley, a retired high school English teacher and lifelong resident of Rahway, New Jersey, and his wife, Robin, reside in the very town where these events occurred over a century ago. He is the father of two, Lauren and Sam.

Shipley has a B.A. in English from Montclair University, an M.A. in Humanities from Kean University, and is the published author of three previous works entitled Rediscovery of Rahway, Images of the Past, and Images of the Past II.

His interest in this case began at age ten, upon reading a brief one-page account of the story and as he researched his other books, he came across more information that led him to write about this mysterious case.

Comfortable, warm enough. Feels a bit like a shawl but looks like a good sweater.
I like the color and the fit is good, roomy, feels a bit like a shawl but holds shape and hides a few extra pounds. The zipper is thin but whether you'll find it good enough to last I wouldn't know yet. I'm keeping this.

Comfortable, well put together, nice material, size chart is way off.
Color: Black, Size: 3X-Large
A well put together sweater that is made with very soft yarn, and doesn't seem to have any major structural issues. The zipper works great and the stitching looks like there's not major flaws. The only big issue is the 3XL sweater I got is way off size wise. Oversized sweaters are great, so I was excited about getting this for me to use for day to day wear, and my wife (who is a lot smaller than me) to steal when she's watching tv on the couch or sitting outside, so the disappointment was palatable. Sadly the 3XL size is about the same size as XL sweaters in the closet, where as a few 2xl sweaters we recently ordered from another company are a lot larger than this one. Outside of the major size discrepancy, which could be a major deal breaker for some, the sweater itself is really comfy and really nice. Sadly 3XL is the largest size we could get on the chart.
