Las Aventuras de Sherlock Holmes – The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes


Book Description

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) creó el modelo más acabado de detective: Sherlock Holmes y su inseparable amigo y ayudante, el Dr. Watson. Su método deductivo para resolver cualquier enigma por difícil que se presentara, sobre un asesinato, robo o secuestro, se reveló infalible, quedando como modelo a seguir. Siempre con su lupa, su espectacular gorra y su capa de lana escocesa, sobresale entre la pléyade de grandes investigadores: Dupin, Hercules Poirot y el inspector Maigret, y una infinidad de personajes literarios.

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes


Book Description

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(Sherlock Holmes #9) Annotated


Book Description

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.
