Other editions of book The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

Join the immortal Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson as they solve some of their most famous cases. Including "The Red-Headed League", "The Speckled Band", "A Scandal in Bohemia", and more of their remarkable adventures adorn this sparkling collection. Brought to life by award-winning narrator B.J.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories have that rare, compelling quality which has enabled their popularity to endure for over 100 years. People are as ravenous for these clever, spirited mysteries – and the eccentric, irreverent man who solves them – today as they were in 1892, the year that 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' was published. The 12 classic stories contained in this collection include “A Scandal in Bohemia” and “The Adventure of the Speckled Band,” two of Holmes’ most famous and enjoyable cases.

What would the genre of detective fiction be without the inimitable Sherlock Holmes? One can only speculate as to its state given the absence of its most famous character. “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes” was the first anthology of Sherlock Holmes stories and collected together the stories that were first serialized in “The Strand Magazine” between June 1891 and July 1892. The stories included in this reprint of that volume are as follows: “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”, “The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle”, “The Adventure of the Speckled Band”, “The Adventure of the Engineer’s Thumb”, “The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor”, “The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet”, and “The Adventure of the Copper Beeches”. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

From his Baker Street apartment, Sherlock Holmes wields his powers of deduction in pursuit of justice and truth, venturing out into foggy Victorian London accompanied by his faithful sidekick Dr Watson. This classic collection of Holmes tales includes many of the detective's most-loved exploits: Holmes is confronted by a venomous snake in 'The Adventure of the Speckled Band', mystified by a missing thumb in 'The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb' and beguiled by a beautiful opera singer in 'A Scandal in Bohemia', never once losing his famous cool.
