Sherlock Holmes: Trifles

The Alleged Use of Cocaine by Mr. Sherlock Holmes


Listen Later

“you are mistaken about my alleged agents” [MAZA]      Along with the calabash pipe, deerstalker cap, and Inverness cape, one of Sherlock Holmes's traits is the use of cocaine. But should it be?   William H. Miller, M.D. F.A.C.P. won the Morley-Montgomery Award for his article in Vol. 19, No. 3 of The Baker Street Journal in which he asserted that we're mistaken in believing that Sherlock Holmes used cocaine.
