A Study in Sherlock - Watson's Notebook

About this episode

"Out came the official notebook" [WIST] 

 

As we know from experience with Jonas Oldacre, when a builder puts his mind to something, he can really go far.

In the case of Raymond Farney though, it concerns something that began as a personal project but ended up becoming a book — a reference book of more than 600 pages: A Study in Sherlock - Watson's Notebook.

This unique tome is a wonderful companion to anyone who's reading the Sherlock Holmes canon, either for pleasure or for research purposes. We highlight some uses, ponder with Ray over the amount of time Watson spent at 221B Baker Street, and consider the possibilities of a follow-up work.

We announce the winner of last episode's Canonical Couplet (a LEGO figure and book are headed their way) and introduce another one. Some material from the bulging vaults at IHOSE headquarters will go to the winner of yet another couplet we share in this episode.
