About this Item

This new copy is bound in illustrated card covers as issued. The contents are bright, tight, white and square.

Kathleen Kaska's The Sherlock Holmes Triviography and Quiz Book is that rare book which really delivers on the promise "something for everyone." Ms. Kaska divides the book into two parts. First, of course, come the actual quizzes and bits of trivia. Here, the author's twenty-five years as a teacher come into play. Unlike some quiz masters, whose primary aim is to pick the most esoteric bits of information imaginable in order to stump as many people as possible and impress us all with their cleverness, she chooses questions that lead you through the major points of the story-checking both your eye for detail, and your comprehension. Come for the quizzes and puzzles-stay for the information! At the beginning of each chapter, and at the start of each quiz, Ms. Kaska provides well-written background material, both on the story/subject matter, and occasionally on what may have inspired it. The trivia included in each section is also well-chosen. Ref JJJ 2. Seller Inventory # 030252
