Synopsis: Sherlock Holmes is a fictional character of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries who first appeared in publication in 1887. He was the creation of Scottish author and physician Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. A brilliant London-based consulting detective, Holmes is famous for his intellectual prowess and is renowned for his skillful use of astute observation, deductive reasoning and forensic skills to solve difficult cases. Conan Doyle wrote four novels and fifty-six short stories that feature Holmes. The first story, A Study in Scarlet, appeared in Beeton's Christmas Annual in 1887 and the second, The Sign of the Four, in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine in 1890. The character grew tremendously in popularity with the beginning of the first series of short stories in The Strand Magazine in 1891; further series of short stories and two serialised novels appeared until 1927. The stories cover a period from around 1880 up to 1907, with a final case in 1914. All but four stories are narrated by Holmes' friend and biographer, Dr. John H. Watson; two are narrated by Holmes himself, this including the Blanched Soldier,and two others are written in the third person. In two stories (The Musgrave Ritual and The Adventure of the Gloria Scott), Holmes tells Watson the main story from his memories, whereas Watson becomes the narrator of the frame story. Conan Doyle said that the character of Holmes was inspired by Dr. Joseph Bell, for whom Doyle had worked as a clerk at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary. Like Holmes, Bell was noted for drawing large conclusions from the smallest observations.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Dustjacket as Issued. An attractive Period Rebound in 1/4 leather, with Raised Spine Bands, Gilt Spine title, and Marbled Endpapers. Top Edge Gilt. Scarce thus. Some light scuffing to spine bands on Volume II; a small area of light sun fading to front leather. A foundational collection of dete…ctive fiction featuring the brilliant, eccentric Holmes and his loyal narrator, Dr. Watson, showcasing ingenious deductions, complex plots (often involving family secrets and foreign elements), and a unique Victorian atmosphere. The collection, including novels like Hound of the Baskervilles, offers timeless, engaging mysteries. Known as the A. Conan Doyle Memorial Edition, this set was released two months after Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's death in 1930. While the set is marked with a 1927 copyright date, this refers to the publication of the final collection of short stories, The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes, which was the last part of the canon to be copyrighted.The edition is notable for its introduction or preface by the famous Sherlockian Christopher Morley.
