...killer-be erased. Jack, Stowell believes, was certified insane and was quietly placed in a private mental home -although he later escaped and committed his last and most horrible murder, that of a prostitute named Mary Jane Kelly.

Stowell suggests that Jack learned his skills "on the family estate in Scotland," where he stalked deer and watched carcasses being eviscerated and dressed...

When the U.S. retaliated by cutting off silver purchases, Crdenas agreed to pay some compensation, but continued to seize land owned by Americans. Eventually, Crdenas redistributed...
...that White House staffers found objectionable. It was not censorship they wanted, the aides explained. They just did not think that the U.S. public needed to know that President Nixon mixed himself a martini every night before dinner, that the Nixons love meat loaf and hate calf's liver, that Pat Nixon "at times appears to lack a good appetite" and that she was in the White House eleven months before she visited the chefs in the kitchen...
