Presented here are the third, fourth and fifth books of the Sherlock Holmes canon: the novel "The Hound of the Baskervilles" and short story collections "The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes" and "The Return of Sherlock Holmes," all written by Holmes' legendary creator, the great Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Collected here are some of the most beloved and revered of Doyle's Holmes stories. This volume includes the classic tale of the deadly and mysterious "hound" that haunts the centuries old Baskerville estate as well as the case of "Silver Blaze" (the missing champion race horse), "The Naval Treaty" (where Holmes must intervene to prevent an international diplomatic catastrophe), as well as the infamous story known as "The Final Problem," where Doyle introduces the character of the Napoleon of Crime - Professor Moriarty - and tells of his battle with Holmes at Reichenbach Falls, leading to the death of Moriarty and - in a plot twist that shocked and horrified his readers - the demise of Sherlock Holmes himself. Or....does it? For both longtime fans and newcomers alike, these stories are the must-read tales of the world's most famous and celebrated literary detective, the one-and-only Sherlock Holmes. These three books are presented here in their original and unabridged format.

Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle was born in 1859. He trained to be a doctor at Edinburgh University and eventually set up a medical practice in Southsea. During the quiet periods between patients, he turned his hand to writing, producing historical novels such as Micah Clarke and adventure yarns including The Lost World, as well as four novels and fifty-six stories involving his most celebrated creations, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Doyle was knighted in 1902. In later life he devoted much of his time to his belief in Spiritualism, using his writing and celebrity as a means of providing funds to support activities in this field. He died in 1930.
