1-18-11 Holmes on the Range by Steve Hockensmith - Fiction

4 - This is a funny and clever debut of a series of books by Hockensmith. Old Red Amlingmeyer is a cowboy in 1893 Montana with a huge Sherlock Holmes obsession. He has his brother, Big Red, read him every Holmes story they can get their hands on. So when there's a suspicious death on the ranch they are working, Old Red decides to follow Holmes lead and try to deduce the true cause of death and find the culprit, dragging Big Red right along with him. Fans of Sherlock Holmes and westerns will enjoy this book and I look forward to reading the next in the series.
