- Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are, perhaps, the most famous characters in fiction throughout the world. Such is their vitality that their characters have assumed the reality of flesh and blood. Throughout the entire collection of masterly storied, their social world and the characters and places they interact with—the anxious clients, the vicious criminals, their friendly rivals in the police force. The familiar and reassuring ambiance of 221b Baker Street—are rendered with superlative literary skill by Arthur Conan Doyle.Michael and Mollie Hardwick’s indispensable and affectionate Sherlock Holmes Companion gather together all the various elements in the stories to provide a unique reference source. Included is a comprehensive Who’s Who of characters, a concise summary of the plot of each story, detailed biographies of both Holmes and Watson, an anthology of their often witty aphorisms, and an essay on the author’s life and relation to his immortal and much-loved characters.
