歇洛克·福尔摩斯(Sherlock Holmes)是一个虚构的侦探人物,是由19世纪末的英国侦探小说家阿瑟·柯南·道尔所塑造的一个非常聪明的侦探形象。福尔摩斯自己称自己是一名“咨询侦探”,也就是说当其他私人或官方侦探遇到困难时常常向他求救。故事透露福尔摩斯经常能够足不出户就可以解决很多疑难问题,但是大部分故事都集中讲述一些比较困难、需要福尔摩斯出门调查的案子。福尔摩斯善于通过观察与演绎法来解决问题。柯南·道尔是从自己就读的爱丁堡大学一名善于观察的老师的身上获得灵感,创造了福尔摩斯这一人物的。

Sherlock Holmes
The Complete Novels and Stories
Volume II
Since his first appearance in "Beeton s Christmas Annual in 1887, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle s Sherlock Holmes has been one of the most beloved fictional characters ever created. Now, in two paperback volumes, Bantam presents all fifty-six short stories and four novels featuring Conan Doyle s classic hero--a truly complete collection of Sherlock Holmes s adventures in crime!
Volume II begins with The Hound of the Baskervilles, a haunting novel of murder on eerie Grimpen Moor, which has rightly earned its reputation as the finest murder mystery ever written. The Valley of Fear matches Holmes against his archenemy, the master of imaginative crime, Professor Moriarty. In addition, the loyal Dr. Watson has faithfully recorded Holmes s feats of extraordinary detection in such famous cases as the thrilling The Adventure of the Red Circle, Holmes s tragic and fortunately premature farewell in The Final Problem, and the twelve baffling adventures from The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes.
Conan Doyle s incomparable tales bring to life a Victorian England of horse-drawn cabs, fogs, and the famous lodgings at 221B Baker Street, where for more than forty years Sherlock Holmes earned his undisputed reputation as the greatest fictional detective of all time.
Publisher Comments :
Over one hundred years have passed since Sir Arthur Conan Doyle intoduced his inimitable sleuth, Sherlock Holmes, to the world — and his popularity has never waned. This oversized commemorative volume contains the entire canon of Holmes adventures, both before and after his creator s attempt to dispatch him in print. Just as the character, Holmes, prevails and defies even death, these detective stories featuring him and Dr. Watson have withstood more than the test of time: they defined and changed the way modern crime writers approached detective fiction.
