I have my eye on a suite in Baker Street... So said Sherlock Holmes when he & Dr Watson first met. Their humble address at 221B Baker Street has since become almost as famous as the great detective himself, the incredible popularity of Sherlock Holmes adventures never wavering over the last 120 years. Dr Watsons initial encounter with Holmes came in Sir Arthur Conan Doyles first Sherlock Holmes novel "A Study in Scarlet", first published in 1887. The tale involves the investigation of a grisly murder in foggy South London that casts a sinister shadow all the way across the Atlantic to the sun-scorched plains of Utah. " The Sign of Four", the second novel, was first published in 1890. This is a tale of a damsel in distress, intrigue in colonial India, stolen treasure, a baffling murder & four despicable ex-convicts. Perhaps the most famous of all Sherlock Holmes stories was the third novel, " The Hound of the Baskervilles". Featuring bizarre behavior & mysterious deaths on the Devon moors, the tale first appeared in print in 1901. In 1914, the final Sherlock Holmes novel, " The Valley of Fear", saw Holmes unraveling the mystery of a dead mans mistaken identity while facing up to his old foe, Professor Moriarty. Although many more of Holmes cases were recorded in short stories, these were the only novels. Each is faithfully reproduced in this one epic volume, complete & unabridged, providing an ideal introduction to Sherlock Holmes for the uninitiated as well as a nostalgically familiar collection for long-established Holmes fans. ...

" The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" contains four of Conan Doyle's own all-time favorite Holmes mysteries, The Adventure of the Speckled Band, The Red-Headed League, A Scandal in Bohemia & " The Five Orange Pips". " The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes" has another three of Conan Doyle's favorites in " The Adventure of the Reigate Squire", The Adventure of the Musgrave Ritual & " The Adventure of the Final Problem".

Holmes' titanic struggle with his arch enemy, Professor Moriarty, had seen them both apparently plunge over a sheer drop, although Watson never actually saw Holmes' body. This was Conan Doyle's attempt to bring an end to Holmes' adventures, but he was to be resurrected by popular demand eight years later. " The Memoirs" also
