First published in 1944, this is an anthology of parodies and pastiches, and comprises of a collection of more than 30 storiesâ€”written by detective story writers, famous literary figures, humorists and othersâ€”of burlesques and pastiches of the famous detective that represent the highlights of character, style, idiosyncrasies, deduction associated with Sherlock Holmes.

Barrie, Oâ€™Henry, Clendening, Agatha Christie, Anthony Berkeley are but a few of the others, out of print or collectorsâ€™ items, here reprinted for the first time.

â€œRespectful, waggish, farcical, all are appreciative of Holmesâ€™ domination of the mystery scene. [â€¦] a pleasant companion to Holmesiana.â€â€”Kirkus Review
