Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous detective Sherlock Holmes appeared regularly in the Strand Magazine between 1887 and 1927, where Sidney Paget's brilliant black-and-white illustrations first fixed that vividly familiar image of the tall, stern-browed figure, in deerstalker and cape.
This new edition of Sherlock Holmes most celebrated cases includes such classics as The Speckled Band, The Red-Headed League and The Final Problem'. It is lavishly illustrated with the original Strand Magazine illustrations, together with twelve colour plates by leading modern artist Graham Ward which have been specially commissioned for this volume.
