Anyone else run into "The Doyle Diary" subtitiled the Last Great Conan Doyle Mystery with a Holmesian Ivestigation into the Strange and Curious Case of Charles Altmant Doyle"
Heavily illustrated by Arthur Conan Doyle's father. Bizarre and fascinating.

yes, it's an interesting book (although nothing to do with Holmes).
the story of ACD's father is a sad one, and while neither his art nor his poetry are what one might call "great" (and that's putting it mildly ~ lol), it does provide an interesting view into a very disturbed mind.
in fact it's funny this should be brought up right now. i have had this book for millenia, and hadn't given it a thought in years. but last week a friend invited me over to view a documentary on Conan Doyle called 'The Madness of Sherlock Holmes' (not very good, i might add) in which this book was mentioned.
my friend (who is not a Holmes fanatic) expressed an interest in this particular book, and so i am on the lookout for a used copy.
interesting coincidence!
