Product Information

Here are the original Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle as they first appeared in the famed British magazine The Strand . This periodical was the literary sensation of its time, especially with the publication of the novel The Hound of the Baskervilles (which appears in its entirety in this volume), when eager readers lined up outside the magazine's London offices, waiting for each installment as it came off press.This edition contains 37 short stories, reproduced in complete facsimile (published in individual volumes as "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes", and "The Return of Sherlock Holmes"), plus the complete novel The Hound of the Baskervilles. Today, the collection of the original issues of The Strand containing the Holmes stories is a rare collector's piece. It is brought to you now, complete and unabridged, comprising a total of well over 600 pages, providing the undying excitement and fascination of each and every Sherlock Holmes Adventure. The drawings of Sidney Paget illustrate the stories--illustrations as immortal as the stories themselves. Paget produced more than 350 Sherlock Holmes illustrations, and it was his depictions which gave Holmes visual reality for everyone, which projected him throughout the world, and which today still provide the mold of the original hero in production on stage, screen and television.

    Concise. Good book to keep next to your bed.

    This is a book that you curl up with on long winter nights. I is light reading the magazine story all over again. Since I was 7 years old I have love Sherlock Holmes that is over 64 years ago. I know the ending to most of his stories but this book brings the excitement back as if I never read one of his stories. It will be one of the jewels of my collection

  • Sherlock! You came back to me!!!!

    I don’t know how it happened, but somehow or other my original copy of this book disappeared. I loved it because the strand magazine illustrations just shouted the Victorian era. There were many book options if I just wanted Holmes stories, but those illustrations made all the difference for me. So after a quick search on eBay, I had my lost book again. Welcome back Sherlock and Watson! so nice to see you again! (Literally)

  • The Game is Afoot!

    More than 100 years after original publication these stories still crackle with mystery and suspense. The period settings, well-drawn characters, and wonderful companion Paget drawings make the stories come to life through this book. Thank goodness Arthur Conan Doyle did not leave Holmes at the bottom of Reichenbach Falls!
