Not reviewed before publication?!,

This review is from: Massacre in Milwaukee (Paperback)
Decent book. Not too many irrelevant & boring details. However, i am not sure if my copy was like that, but i have never read a book before written in such bad English. Bad English meaning grammar, luck of punctuation throughout the book, incomplete words. That was really strange and a big turn off.

This review is from: Massacre in Milwaukee (Paperback)
I really wanted to read a book on Jeffrey Dahmer and this was one of the few available publications. Though it is very informative, it loses a little because of poor editing. I don't normally catch things like that, but this book had enough that it was noticeable. One problem was the work "had" was replaced by "bad" in many places throughout the book. I guess they did a spell check, but no one ever proof read the manuscript. The other problem is that the book is obviously a rush job to get on the market first. The bad cut and past photos they worked into the middle of the book are grainy and terrible looking. Also the story was written well before Dahmer meets his end in prison. It would have been nice to get that part in the book. Maybe there will be a revised edition one day. This is a decent history of Dahmer, but it is not perfect.

This review is from: Massacre in Milwaukee (Paperback)
This book as far as I know was onw of the first written about the Jeffrey Dahmer case. The copy I got is a reissue that contains a few typos and such...(I wouldn't have their secretary review my work for typos)...but altogether, a very good read.
Unlike alot of biographies that become a long, boring monologue about the subject, this one captivated me from the beginning, and kept me reading by not dragging on too long about mundane things. Now, just to let everyone know, I have most of the books and other publishings written about Jeffrey Dahmer, so the mere fact that I am scoring this so high says alot. The only down side to this book is the fact that it was written so early, before alot of the interviews were conducted with Jeffrey Dahmer, and before alot of information came to light. Most of the information is second and third party information, unlike other books that were written by people who were originally at the scene, but it still reads like it could have been written by someone who had first hand knowledge of the case. All in all, I would recommend this book for anyone who is interested in the case, both casual readers, and forensic enthusiasts alike.
