The Sherlock Holmes Companion, An Elementary Guide By Daniel Smith

Here, in a witty and informed text, are plot summaries of every single Sherlock Holmes story, in the order which they were written, and with good-humoured and even waspish assessments of their relative merits. And there are many original interviews with some of the actors who've played Holmes, or written film or television scripts about him, over the years - as well as a comprehensive chronology of all the (often unlikely) thespians to have attempted a portrayal of Holmes, from Basil Rathbone and Jeremy Brett to Stewart Granger, no less.
