Sherlock Holmes Info Page From the website http://www.crimelibrary.com/gangsters_outlaws/cops_others/sherlock_holmes/1.html In a sea of fictional detectives that includes the greats, the near- greats, and a great many wannabes, the lighthouse that shines above them all is, of course, Sherlock Holmes. Created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and presented through the narration of the fictional Dr. Watson, Holmes is the most brilliant detective ever.

It is the same as G-M. www.assignmentpoint.com
