This was the first time that wireless telegraphy had resulted in the arrest of a murderer and it was Dew's final investigation for Scotland Yard. After retiring from the Metropolitan Police and working as a private detective Dew began to write and in 1938 his autobiography \u003cem\u003eI CAUGHT CRIPPEN\u003c\/em\u003e was published. It subsequently became an important work for crime historians and has long been out-of-print. Dew's accounts of the Crippen case and his futile hunt for Jack the Ripper are the lengthiest ever written by a police officer closely involved in the investigations. The latter part of\u003cem\u003e I CAUGHT CRIPPEN\u003c\/em\u003e deals with a variety of other cases that Dew worked on, including the arrest of the international jewel thief Harry the Valet. \u003cem\u003eTHE ANNOTATED I CAUGHT CRIPPEN\u003c\/em\u003e makes this classic work available again. It contains a full transcription of the original text, annotated with footnotes including additional material from a newspaper serialisation of Dew's memoirs that has never appeared in a book before. It also features appendices of Dew's other writings and articles written about the celebrated detective during his lifetime.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mango Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45545611198615,"sku":"9781911273615","price":1836.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781911273615.webp?v=1767908585","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/annotated-i-caught-crippen-9781911273615","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
