Dr. Watson, one of Sherlock Holmes' few acquaintances, aids him in his mystery-solving adventures, and the duo are legendary among the ranks of fictional crime-solving sleuths. Written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, this edition of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes includes stories such as A Scandal in Bohemia, The Red-Headed League, A Case of Identity and many more. With an eye-catching new cover and new note about the author, this book is both modern and readable.
