The bizarre cases that Holmes takes up are fascinating, for they fall beyond the mundane. Indulge children in this volume of stories that have enthralled readers over generations. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson have once again taken up some of the most intriguing cases.

A collection of eleven short stories, The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes introduces Mycroft, Holmes’ elder brother, in ‘The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter,’ and Professor James Moriarty, the criminal mastermind and Holmes’ archenemy, in ‘The Adventure of the Final Problem.’ The stories continue to thrill their readers. The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes are a collection of twelve short stories published in The Strand as further episodes of the Adventures between December 1892 and December 1893 with original illustrations by Sidney Paget. They were first published as a collection in 1894. They include one of the most famous Sherlock Holmes stories, "The Adventure of the Final Problem", in which Doyle "killed" Holmes. Several of the stories are told in a way which is more from Holmes' own point of view, as he tells Watson some of the early work that he did before meeting the doctor. · "The Adventure of the Silver Blaze" · "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box" [note 1] · "The Adventure of the Yellow Face" · "The Adventure of the Stock-Broker's Clerk" · "The Adventure of the Gloria Scott" (Holmes's first case, described to Watson) · "The Adventure of the Musgrave Ritual" (another early case, told by Holmes to Watson) · "The Adventure of the Reigate Puzzle" · "The Adventure of the Crooked Man" · "The Adventure of the Resident Patient" · "The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter" (Mycroft appears for the first time) · "The Adventure of the Naval Treaty" · "The Adventure of the Final Problem" (Watson reports the death of Holmes) About the Author: Arthur Conan Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh into a prosperous Irish family. He trained as a doctor, gaining his degree from Edinburgh University in 1881. He worked as a surgeon on a whaling boat and also as a medical officer on a steamer travelling between Liverpool and West Africa. He then settled in Portsmouth on the English south coast and divided his time between medicine and writing. Sherlock Holmes made his first appearance in 'A Study of Scarlet', published in 'Beeton's Christmas Annual' in 1887. Its success encouraged Conan Doyle to write more stories involving Holmes but, in 1893, Conan Doyle killed off Holmes, hoping to concentrate on more serious writing. A public outcry later made him resurrect Holmes. In addition, Conan Doyle wrote a number of other novels, including 'The Lost World' and various non-fictional works. These included a pamphlet justifying Britain's involvement in the Boer War, for which he was knighted and histories of the Boer War and World War One, in which his son, brother and two of his nephews were killed. Conan Doyle also twice ran unsuccessfully for parliament. In later life he became very interested in spiritualism.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes Book Summary: The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes has twelve stories of the adventures of Holmes and Watson, mostly in their later years. The stories were published in different magazines at different times and were later compiled in the The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes in 1927. The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone Watson is shown in Holmes’s quarters by Billy, a young help. They discuss Holmes’ new case of finding the Mazarin stone and the two men who may have possibly stolen it, Count Sylvius and Sam Merton. Count Sylvious is clever and cunning, while Sam is just the loyal muscle-man. Holmes fears that the two might be planning to kill him by shooting him thorugh his window and so has a very life-likemwax effigy of him installed in his window. Holmes comes and updats Watson on the new facts of the case. Billy, soon after, comes and informs of Count Sylvius requesting a visit. Holmes and Watson hide in the bedroom as Count is shown into the living room. Holmes gives a note to the Watson with instructions for Scotland Yard and asks him to leave immediately. The count tries to strike on the effigy misunderstanding it to be Holmes when Holmes goes out to meet him. Holmes informs the count of his knowledge about his criminal activities and the witnesses he has, who will implicate the Count. He asks them to surrender the stone or be arrested. He also calls Sam Merton and ask the two men to discuss their situation. Once he leaves, the two men decide to give a false confession to Holmes while deciding to smuggle the diamond, which was in the pocket of the count at the moment, to Amsterdam. Holmes, who had been hiding in the plain sight by impersonating the effigy, catches them red-handed and hands them to the waiting police. Lord Cantlemere comes soon after and Holmes pranks him by placing the diamond in the pocket of a sceptical Lord Cantlemere. Lord Cantlemere is joyous and leaves with the prize. The Problem of the Thor Bridge Holmes is engaged by a Neil Gibson, the Gold King, a ruthless businessman popular for his violent and aggressive nature, for acqutting his governess Miss Grace Dunbar from the charge of murder of his wife. The wife was found dead at the mouth of the Thor bridge with a bullet shot to her head, and a revolverwas found upon investigation in the wardrobe of the gorvernesss. The manager of the client comes abefore the client himself and describes Gibson’ violent ways. Holmes successfully deduces of an infatuation between the businessman and the governess and chides him for his lust. The businessman confesses of having feelings for the Dunbar, as he had nothing in common with his wife whom he married in an impulse for her sheer beauty, but mentions that Dunbar was against an illicit relationship and only helped him be a bit more humane. He also suspects that the murder was an accident as his wife was mentally unstable. Holmes reaches Winchester and examines the murder scene, he notices a chip in the firm and strong parapet. He also learns of a note by Dunbar clutched by the deceased, which he founds suspicious. He meets Dunbar and learns of the wife’s jealousy. She asked Dunbar, in a note which she asked to be burned, to come to Thor Bridge. Dunbar replies via a note, which was later recovered fromt the wife. When she goes to meet her, the wife retaliates with curses and Dunbar rushes back. The next morning, the wife is found dead. On the way back, Holmes asks for Watson’s revolver and uses a stone to weigh it down while holding it. When he drops the revolver, it is sucked into the lake a chip is formed on the parapet. Holmes surmises that the wife committed suicide in the same manner to implicate Dunbar, and used a copy of the revolver as a murder weapon shich she had placed earlier in the day in her wardrobe. The Adventure of the Creeping Man Watson is called upon by Holmes, and he is somewhat annoyed at this. When he reaches Holmes, he founds him deep in thought over a case. His client, Mr. Bennet, comes and explains the condition of his future father-in-law Professor Pressbury, to whom he is also the seceratary. The professor is a man of sharp wit and a good reputation. However, he fell in love with a much younger girl who won’t accept his proposal given his age. The professor then disappears on a foreign journey, to Prague which his household learns through some other source. The professor gets mysterious after this journey. He asks the secretary to not open any letters with a cross marked on them, or to touch a particular wooden box he had brought from his travels. He is also bitten by his much-loved dog twice. He grows more violent and is observed to crawl like an animal by Bennet or climb like a monkey on the walls by Edith, Professor's daughter, in night. Holmes and Watson go to Camford and test Professor’s memory which they find sharp as he is able to recall not calling them to him, rather violently. Holmes deduces form the pattern of the Professor’s ravings and from an address he secretly corresponds to, that he is administering a drug, possibly to become young so as to marry the girl he fancies, that leaves him violent and animal-like. When they arrive nine days later as was the Professor's pattern, they secretly watch him perfom eccentricities like a monkey and provoke his dog in biting him almost fatally. They discover that box, with empty vials and a letter form Lowenstein on the drugs and its side-effects which led to the incident. The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire Holmes receives a letter from a law firm about a case concerning vampires. He is sceptical when he reads another letter, that is from the client himself who was suggested Holmes by the law firm.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes Book Summary : The action takes place in March 1897. Sherlock Holmes has been ordered to take a vacation for his health. He and his friend Dr. John Watson rent a cottage on the coast of Cornwall. Holmes enjoys learning about the ancient history of the area. For that reason, he makes the acquaintance of the local clergyman Mr. Roundhay, an amateur archaeologist. Mr. Roundhay rents two rooms at his vicarage, a living room and a bedroom directly above it, to Mortimer Tregennis, a man who is wealthy enough to not have to work. Mortimer Tregennis' sister Brenda and two brothers George and Owen live in a cottage nearby. Mortimer Tregennis says that the separation in his family was caused by a dispute he had with his sister and brothers about money and property several years earlier. However, he claims that the disagreement has now been forgotten, that they are friends again and that he visits them regularly. Mr. Roundhay and Mortimer Tregennis arrive at Holmes' and Watson's cottage early one morning with some startling news. Brenda Tregennis has been found dead and the two brothers George and Owen have gone mad. Mortimer Tregennis says that he went to see his sister and brothers the previous evening and that they played cards together. The evening was cold and damp and, for that reason, there was a fire in the fireplace. Mortimer Tregennis left at around ten o'clock. In the morning, Mortimer Tregennis went out early for a stroll and saw the doctor's carriage heading towards the home of his sister and brothers. In the cottage, Mortimer Tregennis saw his sister and brothers still at the same places at the table which they had been at the night before with the playing cards still in front of them. However, Brenda was dead and George and Owen were speaking nonsense and singing snatches of songs. They all had looks of terror on their faces. Although the window had been opened by the housekeeper Mrs.Porter, the room was very stuffy. It is revealed that Mrs. Porter fainted when she first entered the room. The doctor also nearly fainted and had to sit down in a chair. Holmes and Watson are shown the body of Brenda Tregennis. 1910 illustration by Gilbert Holiday. Holmes and Watson go to the cottage. A carriage taking the insane George and Owen Tregennis to an asylum passes them on the way. While walking up the sandy path towards the cottage, Holmes appears to clumsily knock over a watering can. Holmes and Watson are shown the body of Brenda Tregennis, which has been moved to her bedroom. Holmes carefully examines the room where she died, including the ashes in the fireplace. He determines that the incident must have happened shortly after Mortimer Tregennis left. He later reveals to Watson that he deliberately knocked over the watering can in order to see what Mortimer Tregennis' footprints looked like. He could then compare them with footprints which were left on the sandy path on the previous rainy evening. Holmes did not notice footprints belonging to anyone other than Mortimer Tregennis left the night before. When they return from a walk, Holmes and Watson find the famous explorer Dr. Leon Sterndale waiting for them at their cottage. Dr. Leon Sterndale is known to be a frequent visitor to that part of Cornwall. Holmes and Watson have seen him a few times but have not spoken to him before. Dr. Sterndale says that he has become good friends with the Tregennis family and that he is distantly related to them. He says that he had gone to Plymouth, intending to take a boat to Africa, but returned when he received a telegram from Mr. Roundhay telling him the awful news. Consequently, he has missed his boat and some of his luggage has already been sent on to Africa, although this does not seem to trouble him very much. Dr. Leon Sterndale asks Holmes if he can offer any explanation for the crime. When Holmes says that he cannot, the explorer leaves angrily. Shortly afterwards, Sherlock Holmes leaves too and does not return for several hours. When he comes back, he finds a telegram from Dr. Sterndale's hotel in Plymouth, the name of which he got from Mr. Roundhay. The telegram confirms that the explorer had recently stayed there and that some of his luggage has been sent on to Africa…… About the Author: Arthur Conan Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh into a prosperous Irish family.
