Sherlock Holmes on Screen The Complete Film and Tv History

Sherlock Holmes was the first pop icon of the modern age, instantly identifiable to millions by his silhouette alone. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s enduring creation has appeared on screen more than any other fictional character, and he’s been the subject of movies not only in Hollywood and Britain, but also as far afield as Spain, Russia, Hungary, and Japan. Sherlock Holmes on Screen contains the most comprehensive filmography of the great detective ever published, as well as a full analysis of Holmes on television. In addition, the book features 60 photos—many never before seen—and a guide to Conan Doyle’s original stories. It is a must-have companion for fans.
