Beyond Baker Street: A Sherlockian Anthology

Indianapolis/New York: The Bobbs-Merrill Company, Inc.. Near Fine in Very Good+ dj. (c.1976). 3rd printing. Hardcover. [tiny bump to the bottom front corner, no other significant wear, but with a previous owner's name plus date & place of purchase written in ink at the top of the half-title page; the jacket is lightly rubbed, with some very minor nicking along the top edge, and the same previous owner has (quite unnecessarily) internally reinforced all edges and folds with clear tape (completely invisible from the outside)]. "Editor Michael Harrison and twenty-five other devoted Sherlockians clear the fog of late-Victorian London as they take us indeed beyond Baker Street to a firmer understanding of Holmes, Doctor Watson, the Canon, and their creator, Conan Doyle. No one here has sought to father views and significances which are not plainly apparent at the first reading of the stories, the sixty adventures." Contributors include: Isaac Asimov, Jacques Barzun, John Gardner, Nicholas Meyer, Samuel Rosenberg, and Colin Wilson. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this somewhat heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.
