In Darryl Brock's \"My Silk Umbrella,\" Mark Twain narrates his fateful encounter with Holmes at a baseball game in Hartford, Connecticut; Steve Hockensmith narrates the meeting of the young William Gillette and the object of his later, most famous turn upon the stage; and Peter Tremayne reveals the intersection of Holmes and the Irish in the 19th century American midwestern landscape. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith further stories by Marta Randall, Rhys Bowen, Peter Beagle, and others, the legend, the mythology and even the history of the world's greatest detective is further enhanced by these charming, clever and mystifying tales.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Minotaur Books","offers":[{"title":"Sherlock Holmes: The American Years: The American Years | Michael Kurland | Hardcover | 9780312378462 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks F 1763930","offer_id":49287700775064,"sku":"1763930","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81pONFK6RWL.jpg?v=1781897275","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/sherlock-holmes-the-american-years-the-american-years","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
