The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes not only features the great detective's earliest known cases, it also introduces his older and smarter brother Mycroft and brings us face to face with that Napoleon of Crime, the chilling Professor Moriarty. This is, in short, the volume through which Conan Doyle dramatically enlarges the Holmesian universeand just one reason why any serious Sherlockian will want a copy of these stories in this handsome Edinburgh edition, superbly introduced and crisply annotated by Jonathan Cranfield.
Sherlock Holmes, a fictional character of the late 19th and early 20th century created by Scottish author and physician Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is a brilliant London-based "consulting detective" famous for his intellectual prowess and renowned for his enormous scope of observation, his astute logical reasoning and forensic science skills in solving difficult crimes. The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of Sherlock Holmes mysteries, including The Final Problem in which Holmes confronts his arch-nemesis Professor Moriarty, originally published in 1894, which are preceded by The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and followed by The Hound of the Baskervilles.
