"A Sherlock Holmes Handbook" sums up a Canadian scholar's lifetime's expertise about Sherlock Holmes: the characters and themes, the publishers and readers, Victorian London and the Houdini connection, radio actors and cartoonists, the fans who cling to Holmes's reality and the professors who tease out motifs from the 56 short stories and four novels.A first edition of the Handbook appeared in 1993. This edition catches up on new films, new books (a few with a hint of the supernatural), and the coming of the Internet, which has spread Holmes's fame and Sherlockian fun even further worldwide. The intervening years have brought three multi-volume editions of the Sherlock Holmes stories, with hundreds of footnotes providing new insights and new amusement. They've also seen Holmes repeatedly on the amateur and professional stage, including a few Canadian productions. And there have been changes to everything from copyright rules to libraries, booksellers and audio recordings. The new Handbook will give the authoritative survey of Sherlock Holmes in the new century.
