Description
A century after the fact, Sherlock Holmes' service in the First World War is finally documented in this revealing memoir by Dr. John H. Watson, the detective's famed biographer.
Until now, only a fragmentary glimpse of this period in Holmes' life has been available to readers through the short story "His Last Bow." Thirty-Nine Steps from Baker Street tells the rest of that heroic saga: not only Holmes' cat-and-mouse game with the German spymaster Von Bork but also his role in the rescue of Richard Hannay, hero of the classic novel The Thirty-Nine Steps, as well as the detective's uncovering of enemy agents planted in the peaceful English countryside and his herculean effort to foil the plans of a mysterious foreign cabal whose target was London itself.
Illuminating the relationship of Holmes and Watson in their later years, Thirty-Nine Steps from Baker Street allows the public to share at last in this final great adventure of their partnership, the capstone of Holmes' magnificent career.
