The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes [Revised Edition]
Originally published in 1933, The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes was one of the first pieces of Sherlockian scholarship to appear on the scene.
This edition is Vincent Starrett’s revised 1960 work, with two of the chapters previously published now substantially rewritten for the present edition—including ending the book with a pastiche—and it is this volume that now sits on the shelves of many a Sherlockian.
Well-written, insightful and informative, The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes is a must-read for anyone interested in the field of Sherlockian research.
