Overview

Buyer Beware!!! The poor reviews under this title DO NOT refer to the Ryetown Classics edition. They refer to the free edition which is scanned, unedited, and basically unreadable. You do get what you pay for.

These are the first of the Sherlock Holmes short stories, originally published as single stories in the Strand Magazine from July 1891 to June 1892. The book was published in England on 14 October 1892. THE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES is a collection of twelve stories. In this collection, the beloved detective uses his uncanny skills to rescue a king from blackmail, to capture an ingenious bank robber, and to save an innocent son accused of patricide. The following short stories (and the date they are set in) are included in this book:
A Scandal in Bohemia (March 1888)
The Adventure of the Red-Headed League (Oct 1890)
A Case of Identity (1888)
The Boscombe Valley Mystery (1888)
