The Adventures and Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes

A beautiful bind-up of two of Arthur Conan Doyle's best collections starring literature's most famous detective, now freshly repackaged for Union Square & Co.'s Signature Clothbound Editions line.There is no detective more intriguing than Sherlock Holmes, with his unequalled powers of deduction, and no better mysteries than the ones only he can solve. Just as beloved is his loyal friend and the narrator of the vast majority of his tales, the British Army veteran and physician John Watson. These iconic characters and their entertaining journeys have inspired countless other works and adaptations, leading Agatha Christie herself to hail Conan Doyle as the "pioneer of detective writing." Christie admired his creation of Watson in particular, exclaiming, "How badly we all need a Watson in our lives!"Here, in one volume, are The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes-featuring "A Scandal in Bohemia," "The Red-Headed League," and other famous stories.
