"Canada and Sherlock Holmes is the sixth title of a multi-volume series being published by Baker Street Irregulars Press. This volume makes available a selection of the best fiction and non-fiction Holmesian writing from Canada, much of it from the pages of 'Canadian Holmes', in the hope of reaching a larger audience than had previously been exposed to the high-level of scholarship being produced by our neighbor (neighbour?) to the north." -- Jacket flap. |
