Description

A fascinating look at the accuracy of Dr. Watson's medical procedures within the context of Victorian medicine. There are stories and anecdotes about London's doctors and surgeons to highlight and explain how Watson and Holmes dealt with the poisonings, bludgeonings and shootings that characterise their cases.
