The appearance of Sherlock Holmes in The Strand Magazine in 1891
began a stampede of writers who wanted to emulate, build-upon or
even satirize Arthur Conan Doyle's work. This book explores the
development of detective fiction during the critical period between
Conan Doyle's creation of Holmes and the advent of the Golden Age
of the detective story during World War I. Both British and
American detective writers of the period are surveyed - as well as
writers who turned to gentleman burglars and master criminals.
