    That was Very nice of AJ.👍 Super Cool 👍. Goes Well with that Bada$$ hat. I got 2 get me one now.
    I always thought, and was under the impression Watson was injured on one whole side.
    I can't even tell You how many times I've read these stories.
    I just wish He had written more Sherlock Holmes stories.
    Very Well done Video 👍😁👍

    This was the second Sherlock I read after Hounds of Baskerville. I think I would like it a lot more now if I reread it, but I remember being very confused with how it split and thought I was reading a different story. I look forward to more of these Sherlock Saturdays! 😎

    This was the second story I read of Holmes (after The Hound of the Baskervilles, which remains today my favorite Holmes's story). I love this story so much and it shows a uniqueness that the later stories lack because of Doyle's disinterest in writing Holmes' stories.

    I really liked this book. I read it a long timea go along with some other Holmes stuff...still only read two of the novels, the Adventures of Sherlock HOlmes collection and, i think, most of The Return of Sherlock Holmes. i know there's more, and I should really get to it one of these days. I've always been interested in The Sign of the Four.

    Yay for Sherlock Holmes Saturday! Great work, Michael. I read A Study last year and particularly enjoyed the second half of the book. Actually, I felt the second half outshined the first. 🙈

      It was pretty good, actually! Doyle could really tell a story. He wrote so many books. I should cover his non Sherlock books in the future.

    According to my Sherlock Holmes super duper case histories, Watson was injured in his left arm because Sherlock noticed Watson held it "in a stiff and unnatural manner." Just throwing my two cents worth into the ring. Your deerstalker is pretty nifty.

    Knowing you were going to talk about A Study in Scarlet, last night I took down my Complete Sherlock Holmes and reread the first few chapters. I could tell it was a long time since I read this story - the book contained a Hollerith punch card that I was using as a bookmark.

    That hat does not disappoint! Does Holmes have any flaws, or would you say he's a "perfect" character? Enjoy your mug!

    • @michaelk.vaughan8617
      @michaelk.vaughan8617  3 года назад +2

      Of course I think he’s perfect! I mean he was aloof, cold and frequently acted superior to everyone but …you know…otherwise perfect.

    Did you read the Strange Case of the Alchemist’s Daughter, by Theodora Goss? It wouldn’t qualify a favorite of mine, but it was decent, and I’m pretty sure it is right up your alley.

    Also I think the criticism of the Utah section that some people have is unfair. "We want to get back to Holmes", they say -- but Holmes was new at the time, and Conan Doyle had no idea just how much he would take off. The argument that he gets US geography wrong seems to hold more weight, but even then, I think peopel shoudl be able to put aside their incredulity for the sake of the story.
