Beacon Booklist

The Program Committee for the Beacon Society has completed a project to provide a list of recommended books for younger Sherlockians to enjoy and use for research purposes. The Beacon Society believes this list will assist students in learning more about Sherlock Holmes and the world of 1895 Victorian London. ​​

The Life and Times of Victorian London

The Life and Times in Victorian London and Sherlock Holmes is a series of episodes in which the characters from Baker Street Elementary discuss various aspects of Victorian life.  The Life and Times in Victorian London and Sherlock Holmes can be used by and for students to learn more about the Victorian period.  Older Sherlockians can also enjoy this fun way to learn more about London during the late 1800s.
