Description

The stories in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes appeared in the Strand Magazine before their publication in book form in 1892. Having appeared in A Study in Scarlet (1887) and The Sign of the Four (1890), Sherlock Holmes was already very popular but their publication immortalized him. "A Scandal in Bohemia", a thrilling tale of a beautiful opera singer, was first to appear in the monthly. It was overwhelmingly received as it contained all elements of suspense, observation and deductive reasoning of earlier novels in short story form. It was followed by equally thrilling "The Red-Headed League", "A Case of Identity" and other marvellous stories. Arthur Conan Doyle wrote 56 short stories featuring Sherlock Holmes and his friend and chronicler Dr. John Watson. This volume contains first 12 of them.

About the Author

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Edinburgh, Scotland from where he did his graduation in Medicine in 1881. He had started writing and publishing short stories to some acclaim during his student life but he became widely famous only after the publication of A Study in Scarlet, his first Sherlock Holmes work. Arguably the best crime fiction character ever, Sherlock Holmes practically made Doyle immortal as a writer. Featuring Holmes he wrote 4 novels and 56 short stories. Doyle was a prolific writer and in addition to his Holmes oeuvre he wrote many other novels and short stories. Among them The Lost World is another great work of fiction.
