The Milvertonians of Hampstead: Forgotten Writings from The Worst Men in London

Introduced, Collated and Edited by Nicholas Utechin

Remember The Milvertonians

I wonder how many Sherlockians in this century recall The Milvertonians of Hampstead — the first, and hitherto only, branch of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London? It is a tale of boundless enthusiasm among a few, calling up the founding spirit of The Baker Street Irregulars and The Sherlock Holmes Society of London.

 — From the Introduction

You hold a time machine in your hands. Reading it will transport you immediately to the period between 1958 and 1968. Nick Utechin has gathered together these fugitives from a London in many ways more distant from us than Sherlock Holmes's city. As you feel the 1960s envelop you, envy the Milvertonians, for whom so much waited to be discovered.
