{"product_id":"9781681686219","title":"From Holmes to Sherlock: The Story of the Men and Women Who Created an Icon","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn From Holmes to Sherlock, Mattias Bostr m recreates the full story behind the legendary detective and his many incarnations-a real-life narrative of success, tragedy, and family secrets that has never previously been told in its entirety. The beginning is classic: a young Arthur Conan Doyle sitting in a Scottish lecture hall taking notes on his medical professor Dr. Joseph Bell's powers of observation. More than a decade later, Conan Doyle's short stories became a runaway success in the popular monthly Strand Magazine. A parallel Holmes soon evolved with a whole industry of plays, parody, and pastiche, and Bostr m skillfully follows the men and women who have perpetuated and recast the Sherlockian myth-including the actors who became famous for their personifications of Holmes; Conan Doyle's sons, who desperately wanted to make big business of the detective; the Georgian princess who ended up entangled in the Conan Doyle legacy; and finally the pair of modern-day fans who brainstormed the idea behind the TV sensation Sherlock. Written in novelistic prose, Bostr m's account is a singular celebration of the most famous detective in the world-a must-read for newcomers and experts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HighBridge Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47038637736176,"sku":"9781681686219","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781681686219_p0.jpg?v=1763693920","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781681686219","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
