The Authentic World of Sherlock Holmes: An Evocative Tour of Conan Doyle's Victorian London

Conan Doyle's portrait of a huge, fog-bound, romantic, and sinister city at the peak of its imperial greatness remains, to this day, convincing and atmospheric. Charles Viney retraces the footsteps of Holmes and Watson in over 200 contemporary photographs of London taken between 1879 and 1914. Each illustrates an event from one of the stories in The Complete Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, and its location is pinpointed on a Victorian street map of the city. Viney's book is an ideal reference and guidebook for all Holmes fans.Viney, Charles is the author of 'The Authentic World of Sherlock Holmes: An Evocative Tour of Conan Doyle's Victorian London', published 1999 under ISBN 9781841003023 and ISBN 1841003026.
