Book Description
Jeremy Brett was, for millions of television viewers worldwide the quintessential Sherlock Holmes. However he became obsessed by the role and his body and soul were taken over in his quest to become the ultimate Sherlock Holmes, until his untimely death in 1995. Brett's earlier acting career spanned the greats of the English stage - Laurence Olivier was his mentor - as well as the trappings of Hollywood. Terry Manner's insightful biography considers Brett's contribution to the theatre, but concentrates on the turmoil of his life as Baker Street's world-famous sleuth, and his battle with manic depression. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
