Sherlock Homes and his companion, the doctor, were inveterate users of the Victorian steam railway. In the famous chronicles of Dr Watson, the great network of the South Eastern and South Western Railways carried them through the sprawling suburbs of south London, out to the far corners of the Kent and Sussex countryside, to places where dark deeds were planned and where evil stalked the lonely and isolated neighbourhoods; where, beneath the sputtering gas lamp, the wary traveller paused awhile to hearken at the soft tread of his pursuer; and where the long arm of the law was forever strengthened by the rapier-like intellect of the famous Baker Street detective and his stoic chronicler. In this far-reaching study of twenty of the Sherlock Holmes stories, Kelvin I Jones, the renowned British Sherlockian, brings to life that murky and crime ridden world of murder and mayhem. 'I believe that even some non-Sherlockians will discover much interest in these pages ... Jones reveals a sensibility and knowledge of 19th Century literature that goes far beyond the world of Sherlock Holmes.' - Ed Hoch, award winning American short story writer.
