Summary

"The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" is the first short story collection published by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle featuring his greatest creation: the legendary and brilliant consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes. Written between July 1891 and June 1892 and originally published in The Strand Magazine, this collection features some of the most beloved early Holmes tales, including "The Red-Headed League," "The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle" and perhaps his most famous short story, "A Scandal in Bohemia," in which we meet one of Holmes' most adept and clever adversaries (known as "the" woman), the elusive Irene Adler. "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" is one of the most popular and revered collections of detective stories ever written and is presented here in its original and unabridged format
