Every Sherlock Holmes case Arthur Conan Doyle wrote sits in this single collection: four full-length novels together with fifty-six short stories, from the first meeting with Watson through to the detective's retirement.
Reading the canon in sequence shows how Doyle developed the method of observation and inference, and how Baker Street itself became part of the appeal. The short stories reward dipping in, while the novels give longer plots with more background and a slower build. This collector's edition keeps the whole sequence in one place.
What the collection holds:
• Every one of the fifty-six short stories, plus the four novels
• Traces the partnership with Doctor Watson from beginning to end
• Deduction, disguise and Victorian London throughout
• Single-volume collector's presentation of the full canon
Recommended for detective fiction readers, newcomers to Holmes and collectors who prefer complete sets, available in English from Boipoka.
