Doyle Arthur Conan Sherlock Holmes (6-book Boxed Set)
Оригинально оформленный подарочный комплект в футляре. A luxury boxed set containing all of Conan Doyle's novels and stories: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, The Case-book of Sherlock Holmes, The Hound of the Baskervilles and The Valley of Fear, The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, A Study in Scarlet and At the Sign of the Four, and The Return of Sherlock Holmes and His Last Bow. Книга 1 The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is perhaps the greatest collection of detective short stories ever written. From his residence at 221B Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes solves a series of baffling and bizarre cases using his inimitable deductive powers, recounted to us by the faithful though sometimes bemused Dr Watson. Книга 2 The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes contains Conan Doyle's last twelve stories about his great fictional detective. Compared with earlier collections these tales are darker, exploring such themes as treachery, mutilation and the terrible consequences of infidelity, and containing such gothic touches as a blood-sucking vampire and crypts at midnight. Книга 3 The Hound of the Baskervilles & The Valley of Fear The Hound of the Baskervilles is one of Doyle's best-known Holmes novels, frequently adapted for film and television, which is not surprising given the highly dramatic scenes of mist-wrapped moors echoing to the horrific howls of a supernatural hound. Is this a genuinely devilish apparition or is there a cunning murderer at work? Only Sherlock Holmes can solve the mystery. This volume also contains The Valley of Fear, a dark, powerful tale in which Holmes confronts the evil Professor Moriarty once more. Книга 4 The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes Sherlock Holmes is back on the case in this collection of sparkling short stories. Not only does Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's brilliant detective investigate a fascinating series of crimes and misdemeanours in The Memoirs, but we also learn about Holmes' early days as a sleuth hound and encounter the detective's brilliant brother, Mycroft, who is a member of the Diogenes Club, one of the strangest establishments in London. And, of course, in The Final Problem Holmes come face to face with his nemesis, Professor Moriarty, The Napoleon of Crime. Their struggle, seemingly to the death, was to leave many readers desolate at the loss of Holmes, but was also to lead to his immortality as a literary figure. As well as his witty and illuminating Afterword to this edition, David Stuart Davies, the illustrious editor of Sherlock magazine, has provided a fascinating chronology of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Книга 5 The Return of Sherlock Holmes & His Last Bow Ten years after the supposed death of Sherlock Holmes at the Reichenbach Falls, Arthur Conan Doyle was to bow to popular pressure and the large fees offered by publishers to revive the detective's career. To the astonishment of Dr Watson and the delight of his readers Holmes returns to Baker Street, explains how he escaped death at the Falls and is ready to commence detective work once more. Doyle provided a rich and fascinating set of mysteries to challenge his sleuth in this collection. As before, Watson is the superb narrator and his magic remains unchanged and undimmed. In His Last Bow, the final story of this collection, we are told how Sherlock Holmes is brought out of retirement to help the Government fight the German threat at the approach of the First World War. It is the last time that Holmes and Watson work together. As well as his witty and illuminating Afterword to this edition, David Stuart Davies, the illustrious editor of Sherlock magazine, has provided a fascinating chronology of the Sherlock Holmes Stories. Книга 6 A Study in Scarlet and The Sign of the Four A Study in Scarlet introduced the great scientific detective Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, his friend and chronicler, to the reading public. This novel, a cornerstone in the annals of crime fiction, tells of their first meeting and how they set up in rooms together in Baker Street. It is not long before the charismatic sleuth and his faithful companion are plunged into a dramatic mystery which starts with the discovery of a corpse in a deserted house and the letters RACHE scrawled on the wall in blood. The Sign of the Four, the second Holmes novel, presents the detective with one of his greatest challenges - solving the theft of the great Agra treasure in India. In these two classic novels you have the foundation of the Sherlock Holmes legend. As well as his witty and illuminating Afterword to this edition, David Stuart Davies, the illustrious editor of Sherlock magazine, has provided a fascinating chronology of the Sherlock Holmes Stories.

Doyle Arthur Conan His Last Bow
Arthur Conan Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh. He studied medicine at Edinburgh University and encountered a professor who became his model for the character of Sherlock Holmes; Joseph Bell taught his students the importance of close observation and displayed amazing powers of deduction on very little evidence. After two voyages as a ship's doctor, Conan Doyle set up a medical practice in Southsea, Hampshire. The practice struggled for five or six years and so did Conan Doyle's finances. As his writing career progressed, Conan Doyle increasingly turned towards short stories. Many of these first appeared in The Strand magazine, one of the most popular British literary magazines of the age that saw contributions from writers as varied as H. G. Wells, Agatha Christie and P. G. Wodehouse. The first two series of stories featuring Sherlock Holmes were published in The Strand between 1891 and 1893 and subsequently collected into two volumes entitled The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. As fascinating as Holmes was, almost as important a character was his faithful companion Dr John Watson. Watson is both participant and narrator in these stories and his relationship with the solitary detective humanises the brilliant detective. Watson is an intelligent gentleman, with a keen eye and a sharp intelligence, yet even he is often bemused by Holmes' deductions. The interplay between these two characters, as much as the joy of uncovering the mystery, is what makes Conan Doyle's stories so entertaining. His Last Bow takes us to the end of Sherlock Holmes' career. It examines Holmes's service in the First World War. The collection was first published in 1917 and contained seven stories, but later editions, including this one, contained one more story, "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box". The unwavering popularity of the Sherlock Holmes stories lured Conan Doyle back to writing. Eventually, he returned to medicine in a field hospital during the Boer War (1899-1902) and received a knighthood in 1902. He died in Crowborough, Sussex on 7 July 1930. The Sherlock Holmes stories had a lasting influence. Several authors, including Anthony Burgess, Stephen King, and P. G. Wodehouse have all written Sherlock Holmes stories of their own. Conan Doyle's stories have been adapted several times for film, television, and even in video games. His classic detective stories set the stage for the golden age of detective fiction that began in the 1930s. While detective novels had begun to emerge in the 19th century, it took the success of Sherlock Holmes to encourage publishers to take a chance on new authors in the genre. Renowned authors such as Agatha Christie owed a great debt to Conan Doyle. In Sherlock Holmes, he created the world's most popular detective.

Doyle Arthur Conan The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
Arthur Conan Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh. He received his early education from Jesuits, but as an adolescent rejected Christianity, proclaimed himself an agnostic and later embraced Spiritualism. Attracted to both literature and medicine, Conan Doyle sold his first story to Chambers's Edinburgh Journal whilst studying to become a doctor at the University of Edinburgh. He completed his studies and established an unsuccessful ophthalmology practice in Plymouth. With few patients, Conan Doyle supplemented a rather meagre income through writing. His first major success came at the end of 1887, with the publication of A Study in Scarlet in Beeton's Christmas Annual. Published in book form the following summer, the short novel featured the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes. More works featuring the great detective soon followed, including the novel The Sign of Four (1890) and the twelve stories that, together, comprise The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1892). By 1893, Conan Doyle had tired of Holmes and, intending to concentrate on historical novels, killed off the character in a story entitled 'The Final Problem'. However, in 1902 Conan Doyle bowed to public pressure and published a new Holmes novel, The Hound of the Baskervilles. That same year he received a knighthood - in recognition not of his great literary creation, but for his work as a propagandist during the Boer War. Several more Sherlock Holmes books followed, the last being a collection of stories called The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes (1927).
