Requirements: .ePUB reader, 0.8mb
Overview: From the Intro:
"… Ever since Sherlock Holmes attained his first great popularity in the 1890s he has been imitated, parodied and burlesqued by admiring or envious writers, and in the century or so that has passed since then there have been literally thousands of non-canonical stories, not to mention a huge body of scholarly work on Holmes’ origins, tastes, habits, dwellings, dressing-gowns and so forth, that in sheer mass is rivaled only by research on Shakespeare and his writings.
Holmes was not the first Great Detective and, as a host of friendly critics have pointed out, his detecting does not always stand up to the closest scrutiny, but he is assuredly the Greatest of all the Great Detectives, without whom no series calling itself The Great Detectives could possibly be worthy of the name—hence this specially-commissioned collection of Sherlockian stories (there being little point in reprinting the original adventures, which are readily available elsewhere and surely known by heart by all but the most recent devotee of the mystery story)…."
