Sherlock Holmes - the Complete Collection of Novels and Short stories

The original complete collection of Sherlock Holmes is comprised of four novels and 56 short stories penned by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. In my view, Sherlock Holmes was the best detective that ever existed in contemporary literature.

As a kid, I was totally smitten by his wily ways and his outrageously wild but accurate deductions. Sherlock Holmes has been my saviour and refuge on several occasions in my life when I needed to perk up. All I needed was to pick up my compendium of his collection of short stories and I was immediately transported to 19th Century England.

Even today, just the thought of Sherlock Holmes brings to mind vivid memories of the English Countryside, the bliss and the excitement. I've also had the occasion to see some of televised episodes and Jeremy Brett's rendition of Sherlock Holmes was exhilarating.

For all you Sherlock Holmes Fans, I have listed together the complete collection of his novels and short stories. Get your collection today or gift it to a loved one. This is definitely one collection to cherish and handover from one generation to the other.

Jeremy Brett's portrayal of Sherlock Holmes is perhaps the best filmed version of Arthur Conan Doyle's famous detective, showcasing Holmes's dazzling brilliance without ignoring his unnerving intensity or drug dependencies. First aired on Britain's Granada Television in 1984, the series offered perfect casting (David Burke, replaced later in the run by Edward Hardwicke, played Dr. Watson as Holmes's sturdy companion and chronicler rather than as a buffoon), marvelous period music by Patrick Gowers, and a running time of almost an hour per story, which allowed superior detail and faithfulness to the original source.

Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Memoirs Of Sherlock Holmes" in the revolutionary Bed Book Landscape Reading Format - a new approach to reading in bed as well as other places people enjoy reading while lying down, such as the beach, or on a grassy lawn in the park. Bed Books provide the freedom to lie in any comfortable position without being obligated to sit up in order to read. They can be an essential aid for readers who may be prone to back and neck strain when assuming the contorted body positions normally required for reading while lying down, and for those who have previously found it difficult or impossible to read books in bed, such as the elderly and the disabled. Bed Books can also be read sitting up as easily as with a conventional book.
