Reviews
A nice little hodgepodge of Holmesian "scholarship," along with a couple of pastiche stories by Roberts at the end.
A brilliant insight into committee structures, rituals and rigmarole around Oxbridge life
A rather mixed selection of Max Beerbohm's work, including serious criticism on the theater (Shaw, Beerbohm-Tree, etc.) fiction (Enoch Soames), and parodies.
