Originally published to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the death of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the man who created this remarkable saga, theSherlock Holmes Compendium has now been fully revised and updated by Peter Haining to include a wealth of new material. Bringing together some of the best articles, essays and illustrations concerning the Holmes legend since he made his debut in 1887, the Compendium boasts among its contributors such luminaries as J. M. Barrie, P.G. Woodhouse and Anthony Burgess, as well as the actor who personified Holmes on the cinema screen, Basil Rathbone.

With new essays including an exploration of the character’s representation on television, the Sherlock Holmes Compendium also contains a generous helping of puzzles and quizes to test your knowledge, and remains essential reading for any fan of 221b Baker Street’s most famous resident.
