  Consisting of a wide range of information about Sherlock Holmes and his creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, this work contains entries on topics such as Holmes's garb, the character of Dr Watson, Conan Doyle's writing habits, and the remarkable variety of weapons used in the stories, from life-preservers to chairs, poison gas, and an arsenal of knives and pistols. The thousands of facts are arranged alphabetically into categories which enable readers to dip into the book and quickly find what they require, or just to browse through at leisure.
