About this episode
"Maybe you collect yourself, sir" [EMPT]
Sherlock Holmes shared his reading interests on occasion, and they tended to be wide and varied. Some of them were for professional development purposes, yet others seem to exist to expand his thinking.
Was Sherlock Holmes a book collector? And if he was, what kind of care did he take for his volumes? It's just a Trifle.
