About this listen
What would you buy in slop-shop? What would you put in your lumber room? And what on earth does the obliquity of the ecliptic actually mean? This A-Z of Sherlockian phraseology can help you find out. A handy guide to those "wordy words" and references found within the pages of Arthur Conan Doyle's books featuring the world's only consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes.
This book gives explanations and definitions of the language and references used in all 60 of the original stories, a companion book, much like a paper Watson, following wherever the complete Holmes goes, dutifully explaining and narrating his meanings to the listener.
Whether you're a lifelong fan of Sherlock Homes, completely new to the books, or just somebody who enjoys learning new and interesting words, this book will guide you to some of the interesting language of the time.
