The Great Detective: The Amazing Rise and Immortal Life of Sherlock Holmes is a non-fiction book by Zach Dundas about Sherlock Holmes .
The book begins with the author's personal visit to the Sherlock Holmes Museum [1] and then progresses chronologically[2] through an exploration of Sherlock Holmes fandom , Sherlockian Societies such as The Baker Street Irregulars , and the Sherlockian game [3]
Reception [ edit ]
Julia Knaus, writing for Transformative Works and Cultures , called the work "a fascinating read".[4] Clea Simon of The Boston Globe appreciated the scholarship but found Dundas' use of personal memoir as framing device to be "the least interesting thread".[3] Kirkus Reviews called it "A bright read for Sherlock's fans".[5] Leslie S. Klinger , writing for the Los Angeles Review of Books , found Dundas' account of Holmesian history "skillful" and said the book "feels like a long conversation with a new friend".[6]
