The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of twelve short stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, featuring his fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. It was first published on 14 October 1892; the individual stories had been serialised in The Strand Magazine between July 1891 and June 1892. The stories are not in chronological order, and the only characters common to all twelve are Holmes and Dr. Watson. The stories are related in first-person narrative from Watson's point of view.

Sherlock Holmes's beloved detective stories all have their origin in notes taken by Holmes's friend and biographer, Dr. John Watson. Now, fans can peek at this precious preliminary material, from letters to newspaper articles. The scrapbook includes Watson's sketches of the paw prints discovered near the body of Sir Charles Baskerville; the address label from the gruesome parcel sent to Susan Cushing in "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box"; and Holmes's final, heartrending letter to Watson before his violent struggle with Moriarty in "The Final Problem." All of the items are reproduced as genuine historical artifacts, complete with tears, stains, folds, and handwritten annotations--and 18 of them are in special "evidence" bags on the page, so you can remove them for a close-up look.
