The 22nd Man: in
Regard to Sherlock Holmes: German Agent
David L. Hammer
The legendary
Sherlockian and most prolific writer, David Hammer, builds on the observation
that no one has ever identified Mr. Holmes retirement cottage on the South
Downs. The author believes this to be the case because Mr. Holmes was never
there! It is Mr. Hammer's contention that Mr. Holmes spent the years, after he
vanished from sight, in 1914 in Germany. The 22nd Man is an account of Mr.
Hammer's personal odyssey in pursuit of information necessary to the
substantiation of his view. Mr. Hammer documents his account with a substantial
collection of most interesting photographs. Enjoyment of the heated exchange of
comments between the author and Jon Lellenberg, contained between these covers
is, in itself, worth the price of the book! It would be something of an
understatement to say that Mr. Lellenberg took exception to the thesis which Mr.
Hammer puts forth in this book. Soft cover, perfect binding, 125 pages, numerous
photographs.
