The appearance of Sherlock Holmes in The Strand Magazine in 1891 began a stampede of writers who wanted to emulate, build-upon or even satirize Arthur Conan Doyle's work.

Both British and American detective writers of the period are surveyed - as well as writers who turned to gentleman burglars and master criminals.
