Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

Accompany the world's greatest detective through the sinister streets of foggy London, into the most remarkable adventures imaginable: Each and every one of the stories in the volume -- "A Scandal in Bohemia," "The Red-Headed League," "A Case of Identity," "The Boscombe Valley Mystery," "The Five Orange Pips," "The Man with the Twisted Lip," or the adventures of the Blue Carbuncle, the Speckled Band, the Engineer's Thumb, the Noble Bachelor, the Beryl Coronet, and the Copper Beeches -- will thrill, delight and astound you. Watch the genius of detection grapple with treachery, duplicity, and murderous evil -- watch him solve the insoluble, bring justice to the unjustifiable, and light to questions that will take no illumination. Sherlock Holmes is the one true pastmaster of the modern mystery; if you haven't read THE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES, it's time to correct that error now.

Arthur Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle is best remembered today as the creator of the world's most famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. But he was much more than that. Apart from being a popular and prolific author - his literary output included historical novels, science fiction and histories of the Boer War and the First World War - his passion for a wide range of subjects make him a colourful and fascinating character in his own right. He was an early champion of the Channel Tunnel, he played cricket for the MCC, was a staunch advocate of Spiritualism, introduced cross country skiing to Switzerland and he was acquainted with many of the notable public figures of the late Victorian and Edwardian period. His fascinating account of his life is a wonderful record of a unique individual. This volume has the added bonus of a perceptive and illuminating introduction by David Stuart Davies who throws some light into the darker areas of Conan Doyle's life.

<p>Sherlock Holmes is the greatest fictional detective in the world. The hero of 56 short stories and four novels, he is so convincing that letters still arrive at 221b Baker Street seeking his help, and when it was thought that he had died in his clash with the evil Professor Moriarty ('the Napoleon of Crime') young men in London wore black armbands. This handsome edition, quarter bound in real cloth, with head and tail bands, a ribbon marker, gilt top edge and illustrated cover boards, presents all of the short stories, illustrated by Sidney Paget, who prepared these inspired black-and-white drawings for the original publication in "The Strand Magazine". This edition has an Introduction by David Stuart Davies, Editor of "Sherlock Magazine".</p>
