The illustrious pipe smoking sleuth along with his trusty sidekick Dr. Watson were one of our first pop-culture heroes. One hundred and fifty years later the "canon" of 60 adventures, first written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle still captures the imaginations of readers from eight to eighty. We uncover the lasting appeal of Sherlock Holmes. Mike's guests are Sally Sugarman, professor of Childhood and Media Studies at Bennington College, "Gasogene" of the Baker Street Breakfast Group, a Sherlock Holmes Society in Vermont and co-editor of ?Sherlock Holmes: Victorian Sleuth to Modern Hero.?. Bob Fritsch, secretary (or teller) of Cox and Company, a Sherlock Holmes Society based in Nashua, New Hampshire
