“To a collector of fairy tales” [HOUN]
Of the many things we know about Sherlock Holmes — or think we
know about him — his knowledge of chemistry and his violin-playing
skills are probably most closely associated with him.
However, in 1952, Remsen Ten Eyck Schenck pulled the evidence
together and compared it with what merely passed as opinion in a
Baker Street Journal article. And what he found
is more than just a Trifle.
