The Hidden Holmes: A Serious Rereading of the Stories and Novels by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle with Analyses and Commentary

What readers have said about The Hidden Holmes: I congratulate you on finding a niche in Sherlockian scholarship. Its hard to find/write something that hasnt been done before. You did that and did it very well.This book is extremely readable entertaining and filled with smart perceptive comments. It reads like a conversation.What sets The Hidden Holmes apart is how it works its way through the sixty tales one story at a time. This gives you ample room to find insights.I liked your point that the stories have deeper social meanings.Among your insights I thought your account of Dr. Doyles extensive use of aptonyms was particularly compelling. To my knowledge though others have noted individual examples I cant think of anyone who has gone into such depth.Would I buy and recommend your book? Certainly!
