Description

"It is a
curious collection." [MUSG] 

You've probably heard us extolling the virtues of A Curious
Collection of Dates: Sherlock Holmes Through the Year on
previous shows. We're big fans of this book. But after this
episode, you'll understand why we're also fans of the authors.

Leah Guinn and Jaime N. Mahoney join us to give us the backstory
on what it was like to develop the concept and bring this reference
tome to life, including their decision to go with a premier
publisher like Wessex Press, where their book wouldn't languish and
become a remainder. 

In our interview with Leah and Jaime, we uncovered their major
source for dates — none other than William Baring-Gould's
chronology from "amzn_ps_bm_tl" href=

online sources such as the "http://www.oxforddnb.com/">Oxford Dictionary of National
Biography, Wikipedia and Ancestry.com.

We also enticed Leah and Jaime to share their favorite entries
with us. And rather than giving us the typical "I love all my
children the same" response of creators, they actually spilled the
beans. But you'll have to listen to find out exactly what they
responded with.

You can find Leah at "http://commonplacecrime.com/">Commonplace Crime,  "https://wellreadsherlockian.com/">The Well-Read
Sherlockian and  "https://www.facebook.com/The-Well-Read-Sherlockian-294187613961282/?fref=ts">The
