The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes

by Arthur Conan Doyle Narrated by Mark Young

Overview

THE MEMOIRS OF SHERLOCK HOLMES is a collection of 11 short stories about the famous detective as told by his friend, Dr. Watson. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle draws us into a world of hansom cabs and train rides to country mansions where Holmes deftly solves the unsolvable--through his inimitable logic, cunning and powers of observation.

Stories included on this recording are: "The Adventures of Silver Blaze," "The Yellow Face," "The Stockbroker's Clerk," "The Gloria Scott," "The Musgrave Ritual," "The Reigate Squires," "The Crooked Man," "The Resident Patient," "The Greek Interpreter," "The Naval Treaty" and "The Final Problem."

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

He is unique in simultaneously bringing down the curtain on an era and raising one on another, ushering in a genre of writing that... has never been surpassed. His own life, as footballer... eye surgeon, champion of injustice and investigator into the paranormal, is the stuff of legend. Personally, I would walk a mile in tight boots to read his letters to the milkman—Stephen Fry, The Arthur Conan Doyle Collection

Michael Dirda

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 universe—and 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.

Times (London)

Sherlock Holmes is the very foundation stone of the edifice that is crime fiction.”
