In this new biography, Nick Rennison presents a new account of the life and times of the famous detective. 'Sherlock Holmes: The Unauthorized Biography' blends what we already know of the great sleuth's career with carefully documented social history to answer the questions admirers have long puzzled over. 'Sherlock Homes: The Unauthorized Biography' reveals for the first time Holmes' influence on the political events of late-nineteenth-century England and his connections to the British criminal underworld. It also brings to light his close friendships with key figures of the day, including Oscar Wilde and Sigmund Freud; and exposes the truth about his cocaine use.
