Arguably an even better example from the Holmes canon is 1910's “The
Adventure of the Devil's Foot .” Holmes hypothesizes that the victims went mad
and/or died from inhaling the powdered root of an African plant that, once heated,
vaporizes and carries on the air . He tests the hypothesis on himself—so
successfully that Watson must save him, in what is one of the duo's most
harrowing moments. Conan Doyle created the fictional plant at the heart of the
mystery, but he presents it as ...

Favorite Sherlock Holmes Detective Stories

Presents a collection of adventure classics, including "The Red-Headed League," "A Scandal in Bohemia," and "The Final Problem."

A Scandal in Bohemia O SHERLOCK HOLMES she is always the woman. I have
seldom heard him mention her under any other name. In his eyes she eclipses
and predominates the whole of her sex. It was not that he felt any emotion akin to
love for Irene Adler. All emotions, and that one particularly, were abhorrent to his
cold, precise but admirably balanced mind. He was, I take it, the most perfect
reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen, but as a lover he

Sherlock Holmes: The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock Complete Set 4)

A collection of gripping cases that culminates in the most shocking of all - the notorious, fatal encounter between Sherlock Holmes and Professor Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls. 'He is the Napoleon of Crime...He is the organiser of half that is evil and of nearly all that is undetected in this great city'. A man like Sherlock Holmes has many enemies. Violent murderers, deviant villains, ghosts of old loves, blackmailers and poisonous scribes, to to name but a few. But none are so deadly, so powerful, as Professor Moriarty. Moriarty - the only man who can compete with Holmes' genius. The only man who can, perhaps, ultimately defeat the great detective ...

was some time before the health of my friend, Mr Sherlock Holmes, recovered
from the strain caused by his immense exertions in the spring of '87. The whole
question of the Netherland-Sumatra Company and of the colossal schemes of
Baron Maupertuis is too recent in the minds of the public, and too intimately
concerned with politics and finance, to be a fitting subject for this series of
sketches. It led, however, in an indirect fashion to a singular and complex
problem, which gave my ...

Sherlock Holmes

The Complete Stories

It is more than a century since the ascetic, gaunt and enigmatic detective, Sherlock Holmes, made his first appearance in A Study in Scarlet. From 1891, beginning with The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, the now legendary and pioneering Strand Magazine began serialising Arthur Conan Doyle's matchless tales of detection, featuring the incomparable sleuth patiently assisted by his doggedly loyal and lovably pedantic friend and companion, Dr Watson. The stories are illustrated by the remarkable Sydney Paget from whom our images of Sherlock Holmes and his world derive and who first equipped Holmes with his famous deerstalker hat. The literary cult of Sherlock Holmes shows no sign of fading with time as each new generation comes to love and revere the penetrating mind and ruthless logic which were the undoing of so many Victorian master criminals.

Sherlock Holmes: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock Complete Set 3)

'I have heard, Mr. Holmes, that you can see deeply into the manifold wickedness of the human heart'. Scandal, treachery and crime are rife in Old London Town. A king blackmailed by his mistress, dark dealings in Opium dens, stolen jewels, a missing bride - these are cases so fiendishly complex that only the great Sherlock Holmes would dare to investigate. For he, and he alone, has the extraordinary faculty of perception and almost unhuman energy which could solve them ...

In glancing over my notes of the seventy-odd cases in which I have during the
last eight years studied the methods of my friend Sherlock Holmes, I find many
tragic, some comic, a large number merely strange, but none commonplace; for,
working as he did rather for the love of his art than for the acquirement of wealth,
he refused to associate himself with any investigation which did not tend towards
the unusual, and even the fantastic. Of all these varied cases, however, I cannot
recall ...

was no very unusual thing for Mr Lestrade, of Scotland Yard, to look in upon us of
an evening, and his visits were welcome to Sherlock Holmes, for they enabled
him to keep in touch with all that was going on at the police headquarters. In
return for the news which Lestrade would bring, Holmes was always ready to
listen with attention to the details of any case upon which the detective was
engaged, and was able occasionally, without any active interference, to give
some hint or ...
