The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes: The Novels

posted in Fiction |


Over 150 years have passed since Sir Arthur Conan Doyle introduced his inimitable sleuth, Sherlock Holmes, to the world and his popularity has never waned.

The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes: The Novels contains the 4 novels— A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of Four, The Hound of the Baskervilles, and The Valley of Fear—annotated by Leslie S. Klinger (a lawyer and a member of the Baker Street Irregulars and one of the foremost Holmes authorities in the world). Klinger manages the difficult feat of appealing both to those new to the world of Sherlockian scholarship and to those who are the preachers there. Ample use of illustrations, some from the novels’ original appearances, adds to the experience and enjoyment.

A must-have for any serious Sherlock Holmes fan, this edition will stand as the benchmark for generations to come. If you are Sherlockian, then this book deserves a prominent place in your library beside the The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Short Stories.
