The Freebie Is Afoot
My sister Julia called my attention to the Discovering Sherlock Holmes program put on by Stanford University.
From roughly-now through April, DSH will be reproducing Sherlock Holmes stories as they were originally published in Strand Magazine. PDFs are available, but I signed up for the hard copy version (both are free). Additionally, the website has "footnotes" detailing various points of interest within the stories.
(In previous years Stanford has given similar treatment to several of "Chuckles" Dickens works. They're archived online, too.)
First the Stanford Theater and now this. Maybe Palo Altans are okay after all.
