A sort of Saturday Review of Literature
We won't stick to Saturdays in the future, but a Reviews department has been added to the website, starting with a review of the brand-new Sherlock Alive: Sherlockian Excerpts from Vincent Starrett’s “Books Alive” Column in The Chicago Tribune 1942–1967, compiled and annotated by Karen Murdock, with an Introduction by Susan Rice. The reviewer this time is the redoubtable J. Randolph Cox ("The Conk-Singleton Forgery Case," BSI). Go directly to it at http://www.bsiarchivalhistory.org/BSI_Archival_History/Reviews_dept.html
