"Nero Wolfe of West Thirty-Fifth Street" by William S. Baring-Gould, Reviewed by Harold C. Schonberg

From the New York Times, January 30, 1969:

"When Baring-Gould is on facts, he is fine. But when he starts to speculate, his enthusiasm leads him to unsupported conclusions. The theory, for example, that Wolfe's parents were Sherlock Holmes and Irene Adler, and that he is Archie's uncle, has too many holes to be taken seriously. As Wolfe himself might say, shards of data improperly glued together build a grotesque artifact lacking in libratory quality."

From the New York Times, August 12, 1967:

"William Stuart Baring Gould, an author and authority on Sherlock Holmes, died of a stroke last night at the Northern Westchester Hospital in Mount Kisco. He was 54 year old and lived on East Wood Road.

"Mr. Baring-Gould was preparing a "biography" of Nero Wolfe, the detective created by Rex Stout. Scheduled for publication before the end of the year is his "The Annotated Sherlock Holmes," a collection of all the Holmes stories written by Conan Doyle, who died in 1930."
