This is John Kendrick Bangs' 1897 novel, “The Pursuit of the House-Boat”. A deceased Sherlock Holmes is employed by the Associated Shades club to help them after the House-Boat has been commandeered by the nefarious Captain Kidd. An amusing and entertaining detective romp set in the afterlife, “The Pursuit of the House-Boat” constitutes a must-read for lovers of quirky fiction and is not to be missed by fans of Bang's work. John Kendrick Bangs (1862–1922) was an American editor, author, and satirist. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
