Description

"The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes" by Arthur Conan Doyle is a collection of short stories first published in 1893. This second collection features twelve cases of the consulting detective, originally appearing in The Strand Magazine. Doyle intended these to be Holmes's final adventures, culminating in "The Final Problem," where he planned to kill off his famous detective. However, overwhelming reader demand eventually prompted the character's return. The stories showcase Holmes at work solving mysteries ranging from missing racehorses to naval treaties, cementing his place in literary history. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
