Huh. Useful. I'll have to try and get ahold of a copy of the Encyclopedia. Thanks for posting!

// Encyclopaedia Sherlockiana, by Jack Tracy, Avon, 1977 //

By the way, this book was used by film director Masllenikov working on Russian Lenfilm series.

Very interesting to know! I've always got the impression the Lenfilm series were extremely well researched.

Thank you for these reviews - I found them enjoyable and very interesting ^^ The second two books in particular seem worth a look.

You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful. Actually the first book is the one I mention before, that I've been taking some interesting facts from for sherlock60, but overall I still wouldn't recommend it as highly as the second two.

Score! Less than $4 on Ebay. It was mis-titled, but the same ISBN.

Wow, good one. I paid quite a bit more, but it was worth it all the same. I've spent a lot of time browsing that book! Hope you enjoy it too.
