***Japan and Sherlock Holmes*** translates into English the best non-fiction writings of Japan for an audience previously unable to enjoy this treasure trove of Sherlockian scholarship. This anthology spans a period from 1911 to the present, and was edited by three members of the BSI as the first volume in the International Series. It contains many Sherlockian analytical pieces, such as Stapleton’s true identity, a comparison between ***The Count of Monte Cristo*** and ***A Study in Scarlet***, and an article which definitively answers all questions pertaining to “The Politician, the Lighthouse, and the Trained Cormorant.” There is a charming homage to Japan’s Sherlockian father, Dr. Kohki Naganuma, and a very early account of a Japanese journalist’s 1910 meeting with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in London.
