About the Book
The first new critical edition in a generation of the first volume of Sherlock Holmes short storiesBook Synopsis
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, serialized in the Strand Magazine in 1891-2 and published in volume form in 1892, made Sherlock Holmes and his creator Arthur Conan Doyle famous. This, the first critical edition for twenty-five years, provides an authoritative text, a full textual apparatus, and a scholarly introduction and notes. It also reproduces a selection of the 104 illustrations by Sidney Paget which appeared in the first British edition.Review Quotes
Conan Doyle did not just create Sherlock Holmes. He reinvented and popularised the mini-series with self-contained episodes -- think not just Inspector Morse or Dr Who but Friends and The Simpsons. Andrew Glazzard's expertly curated new edition of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle's first foray into this endlessly generative form, is a timely invitation for us to binge-read these brilliant stories once again.--Peter D. McDonald, author of The Double Life of Books: Making and Re-Making the Reader (2024)
