Sherlock Holmes and Conan Doyle in the Newspapers. Volume 1: 1881-1892

by Mattias Boström, Matt Laffey

This, the first installment in a new landmark series, contains an exhaustive collection of contemporary news and commentary relating to the Great Detective and his creator. Articles, long and short interviews, good and bad reviews, and numerous short notices are collected here for the first time, regardless of the "class" of newspaper in which they were published. The books offer a wealth of exciting Sherlockian treasures, which, until now, have remained hidden in old, inaccessible newspaper files, untouched for over 100 years.

With an introduction by Steven Rothman.

"Blessings on Mattias Boström and Matt Laffey, benefactors of the race! This collection of newspaper 'clippings' is essential for every biographer of ACD!"
— Leslie S. Klinger, The Sherlock Holmes Reference Library
