The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes (Illustrated with TOC and Original Commentary)
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a Scottish physician and writer known around the world for his stories about detective Sherlock Holmes, which all but created the literary field of crime fiction and made the name Sherlock Holmes synonymous with detectives. Aside from the Sherlock Holmes stories, he was a prolific writer whose other works include science fiction stories, historical novels, plays and romances, poetry, and non-fiction.

Conan Doyle wrote four full length Sherlock Holmes novels: A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of the Four, The Hound of the Baskervilles, and The Valley of Death. But the famous detective was so popular that Conan Doyle also wrote dozens of short stories. The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of Sherlock Holmes stories, originally published in 1894.

The twelve stories (eleven in American editions) of the Memoirs are:

• "Silver Blaze"
• "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box" (this story is in His Last Bow in American editions of the canon)
• "The Adventure of the Yellow Face"
• "The Stockbroker's Clerk"
• "The Gloria Scott"
• "The Musgrave Ritual"
• "The Adventure of the Reigate Squire"
• "The Adventure of the Crooked Man"
• "The Resident Patient"
• "The Greek Interpreter"
• "The Naval Treaty"
• "The Final Problem"

This edition of The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and includes images of Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes, and scenes from the stories.

About the Author

About The Author
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was both a doctor and a believer in spirits, which may partly explain why his Sherlock Holmes is one of literature's most beloved detectives: Holmes always approaches his cases with the gentility and logic of a scientist, but the stories are suffused with an aura of the supernatural. Narrated by devoted assistant Dr. John H. Watson, Holmes's adventures were so addictive that fans protested the master deducer's "death" in 1893 and Doyle had to resurrect him.
