Introduction by Barry McCrea examines the reasons for the stories' enduring popularity, the 'science of deduction', the late Victorian and Edwardian context, and Holmes's rich afterlife on stage, page, and screen.
Chronology and explanatory notes provide further historical context.
Up-to-date bibliography.
Texts taken from the Oxford Sherlock Holmes collections.
The only anthology of stories from across the Sherlock Holmes series, and the only edition with attractive additional features, including introduction and notes.
