Cloth. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardcover. Sherlock Holmes. The Unauthorized Biography. This book blends what we already know of the great sleuth's career with carefully documented social history to answer the questions admirers have long puzzled over. It was Holmes's elder brother who drew him into unoffical work for the British government, and the author reveals how this led directly to the detective's assignation with Professor Moriarty at the Reichenback Falls. Rennison also shows how Holmes held sway over the political events of the late nineteenth century and uncovers his multifarious connections with the British criminal underworld - from his involvement in the plot to assisinate Queen Victoria to his unacknowledged detection of the 'Jack the Ripper' murders. Finally, Rennison shines a bright light on Holmes's personal life and exposes the truth about his cocaine addiction. This meticulous recreation of the secret life and curious times of the famous detective will prove compulsive reading for Holmes fans everywhere. 280 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.). …
