Description: The Sherlock Holmes Compendium has been assembled to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the death of the man who began this remarkable saga, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and brings together some of the best essays and articles written about the Great Detective since he made his début in 1887. Contributors include J. M. Barrie, P. G. Wodehouse, Ronald Knox, John Gardner and the actor who personified Holmes on the screen, Basil Rathbone. The Holmes legend is fully explored and includes accounts of the places he visited, his friends, foes and rivals, and the many aspects of his character. To all this is added a generous helping of puzzles and quizzes to test the reader's knowledge of the cases, and a wide-ranging selection of Holmesian illustrations. The Compendium undoubtedly deserves a place alongside the Adventures in any Sherlockian's library.
