Description
***Canada and Sherlock Holmes*** contains a selection of the best Holmesian writing from Canada, many produced by members of The Bootmakers of Toronto, Canada’s national Sherlockian society. Although two other book-length compilations of the Bootmakers’ writings have appeared in the past, the pieces in this collection have not been previously anthologized. Included in this volume are essays dealing with Canonical persons, places and things related to Canada, the travels there by Arthur Conan Doyle and his family, and the treasure trove of Doylean and Sherlockian items at the Toronto Metropolitan Library. Another article, “Birth and Scandal – Ms. Holmes of Baker Street,” deals with Alan Bradley’s notorious notion of Holmes as a woman, which has intrigued, outraged and challenged scholars for decades. Also, sprinkled throughout the book is a selection poetry and Canonical lyrics.
