I will say, it helps to read (or re-read) Dracula before you read this book; even though everything is explained and you could follow along without having read Dracula at all, they do get into the nitty-gritty of some of the accounts in Dracula. In some ways, this book reads a bit like someone picking apart the superhero (or supervillain, I suppose, in Dracula's case?) movie while leaving the theater. But that isn't a bad thing in this case, because all those small points do come together to make for a good story! I enjoyed the book and above all appreciated the fact that the author's love & respect for not only Holmes but Watson as well comes through in the details.
