If you're curious about the Holmes on the Range series, you can listen to the short story "Dear Doctor Watson" free at Ellery Queen's home at PodOmatic.

Very highly recommended.
Thank you. I bought it on Amazon for $2.99. B&N wanted $3.99. Some of the series Holmes on the Range appear to cost more than the paperbacks.
