*ASIS* didn't affect me nearly as much as the follow-up novel, *Sign of Four* -- a rollicking adventure as well as a good mystery. But if you think that Conan Doyle later put his prejudices aside, you'll find he had another set of scapegoats in the Masons. Regardless, the Conan Doyle Holmes stories are epitomes of exciting detective stories -- and I highly recommend *Hound of the Baskervilles* as the best of the lot, a story that succeeds on several levels. *jeep! --Chet "Start by doing what's necessary, then what's possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible." ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /// ZION LIST CHARTER: Please read it at /// /// http://www.zionsbest.com/charter.html /// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?aaP9AU.bWix1n.YXJjaGl2 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] TOPICA - Start your own email discussion group.
