Episode 62 - Reference Sources

"a line of books of reference beside the mantelpiece" [NOBL]    In Episode 58, we discussed Sherlock Holmes's index books – those collections in which he tracked criminal cases, looked up necessary trivia, etc. But this time, we reach a little deeper and discuss some of the actual named reference books at 221B Baker Street.   Which publications were these and how did they help Holmes and Watson connect the dots and solve some cases? It's a trifle, certainly, but there's nothing so important as trifles.   Have you left us a rating and review on the podcast player of your choice yet?
