5.0 out of 5 stars
For any avid fancier of G. K. Chesterton's artwork,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: G.K. Chesterton's Sherlock Holmes (Baker Street Irregulars Manuscript) (Hardcover)
Compiled, edited, and with an informative Introduction by Steven Doyle, G. K. Chesterton's Sherlock Holmes presents nineteen previously unpublished illustrations intended for Sherlock Holmes stories. Commissioned from Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) for an edition of the Sherlock Holmes tales that was ultimately never published, these rare black-and-white sketches had lain unseen in the Lilly Library of the Indiana University for years. Thoughtful appreciations of Chesterton's work, and Chesterton's own writings concerning the literary figure of Sherlock Holmes round out this fascinating "must-read" for any avid fancier of G. K. Chesterton's artwork, as well as the legions of fans of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic detective stories showcasing the most famous detective in the history of English literature.
