Sherlock Holmes Reference Library: The Hound of the Baskervilles - Arthur Conan Doyle

New, thoroughly annotated editions of the original stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, edited by Leslie S. Klinger.The adventures of Sherlock Holmes have inspired a vast body of literature dedicated to the proposition that the Great Detective was not a mere work of fiction, but an actual historical person. Since the 1920s these writings about The Writings have contributed fascinating new insights into the stories, enhancing the pleasure of reading them. The Sherlock Holmes Reference Library, which will eventually number nine volumes, puts nearly a century of this Higher Criticism at your fingertips! Each illustrated volume is bursting with scholarly annotations and features a sturdy, smythe-sewn soft cover binding....a beautiful piece of work, meeting and exceeding our expectations. This will be a standard for years to come, and every Sherlockian will want to have it.The Baker Street Journal As a tool for the researcher or as a bedside browser through the scholarship, serious, satirical, which has been expended in the name of Sherlock Holmes, this truly magnum opus promises to become a new Holmesian milestone.
