Baker Street By-Ways by James Edward Holroyd (George Allen & Unwin Ltd / 1959)

Classic book, penned by the one-time head of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London, which traces the growth of the Sherlock Holmes legend. It begins with a profile of the master himself, and discusses the work of the illustrators and looks at the true site of 221B, amongst other things.

First edition hardcover. Moderate wear to card dustjacket, including minor tearing at top of spine section, remnants of a price sticker to lower, outside of back and light marking visible to back as well as some light sunning of spine. Overall, though, the book remains in VERY GOOD condition with clean, unmarked pages which are free from notes and underlining and no marking to clothbound boards.
