The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Pdf

No mystery is too challenging for the infamous detective Sherlock Holmes and his partner, Dr. Watson. Holmes is at his best when the job seems impossible—or just plain absurd. From cases involving a strange group for red-headed men to a missing thumb, Holmes uses his powers of observation and deduction to solve even the weirdest mysteries. Scottish author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published his first twelve original Sherlock Holmes short stories as serials in the UK's Strand Magazine from 1891-1892. This unabridged collection of the stories is taken from the book form, originally published in 1892.

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle Pdf

In general the stories in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes identify, and try to correct, social injustices. Holmes is portrayed as offering a new, fairer sense of justice. The stories were well received, and boosted the subscriptions figures of The Strand Magazine, prompting Doyle to be able to demand more money for his next set of stories. The first story, "A Scandal in Bohemia", includes the character of Irene Adler, who, despite being featured only within this one story by Doyle, is a prominent character in modern Sherlock Holmes adaptations, generally as a love interest for Holmes. Doyle included four of the twelve stories from this collection in his twelve favourite Sherlock Holmes stories, picking "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" as his overall favourite.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle Pdf

The Return of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes is a pop culture phenomenon, and he's one worth knowing about. After all, Holmes is one of the most popular, and most frequently cited, literary characters of all time. There's clearly something going on there that strikes people's interest. But what's really interesting is that Holmes is one of those larger-than-life characters that everyone knows, but that few people really know all that much about. Sherlock Holmes has been interpreted and reinterpreted so many times, in movies, TV shows, and even just throwaway references, that it's hard to know exactly who this guy is. The Sherlock Holmes that exists in today's pop culture, and the Watson for that matter, are actually different in a lot of ways from the characters that exist in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's stories. So, by actually reading Sherlock Holmes stories, you can really be in the know. It's good to go back to the original material and see what's up.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Pdf

If there's a return, there's got to be a departure. You might be surprised to learn that Sherlock Holmes made a departure despite the popularity of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Holmes-based stories, the ophthalmologist-turned-writer grew weary of the detective and his antics. In 1891, Doyle told his mother he wanted to kill off Sherlock Holmes and stop writing about him for good. As a doctor, his practice was floundering; writing gave him a way to pass the time. Yet it was also a distraction. His mother begged him not to. Two years later, Doyle did it anyway, using his work 'The Final Problem, ' as Holmes' last mystery. In the story, Holmes meets his end tumbling over Reichenbach Falls. Much like a soap opera that keeps resurrecting dead characters. Doyle brought Holmes back after a nearly ten-year absence and lots of pleading by readers. He explained that Holmes--hoping to elude his enemies--had merely faked his death to protect himself. This book is a collection of thirteen Holmes cases published in 1903 and 1904. Let's take a look at the stories featured in The Return of Sherlock Holmes.
