Praise for The Sherlock  Holmes Triviography and Quiz Book

“Kathleen has put together a wonderful mind teaser of all Sherlock Holmes aficionados. She covers it all: stories, books, the media with lots of questions, puzzles, and trivia facts. No true Sherlockian will want to miss this grand triviography and quiz book.” Michael R. Pitts, author of Famous Movie Detectives I, II, and III.

“…something new for Holmes buffs to test their knowledge or prodigals looking for an excuse to reread childhood classics.” Dallas Morning News

“The Sherlock Holmes Triviography and Quiz Book is a darn clever book. Anything you want to know about the master sleuth is here, divvied up by category and cross referenced.”
Whittier, California News

“This book is fun! Each chapter includes a brief introduction, several quizzes of ten questions each (some are multiple choice; some true/false and some simply direct questions), and then a bit of trivia about every four or five quizzes. The last section contains some crossword puzzles. There are also several appendices with useful information.

“You can find some Holmes quizzes on the internet with a little searching, but this book is definitely worth purchasing. You will find yourself periodically pulling it off the shelf to test your Holmes knowledge.”
Bob Byrne, July 2003
