IN RE: SHERLOCK HOLMES

By

Publisher: Mycroft & Moran (Arkham House, Sauk City, Wisc.)

A special item for a special audience -- the incurable Sherlock Holmes coterie -- these dozen stories of Solar Pons, which are confessedly a direct imitation of the Master. The same period, similar locales, types of crimes, solutions, -- these embody the author's devotion to Doyle -- and provide an entertaining impersonation in the accepted tradition.
