Commissionaire:
Julian Wolff and His
Baker Street Irregulars.
By Sonia Fetherston, BSI.
Without Julian Wolff’s involvement, The Baker Street Irregulars might no longer exist. Due to his leadership as the BSI’s Commissionaire from the 1960s to the 1980s, the organization grew and prospered.
Dr. Wolff was an enigmatic man—reticent and affable, kind and determined, quiet but with a wry sense of humor. Until now, no single work told the entire story of the BSI’s longest serving leader.
Sonia Fetherston has done a remarkable job of research, utilizing previously unavailable documentary sources and speaking with Irregulars, friends, and family members. The volume is written in an engaging style that weaves narrative biography with oral history and reminiscence.
