Kurzbeschreibung
It is more than a century since the ascetic, gaunt and enigmatic detective, Sherlock Holmes, made his first appearance in A Study in Scarlet. From 1891, beginning with The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, the now legendary and pioneering Strand Magazine began serialising Arthur Conan Doyle's matchless tales of detection, featuring the incomparable sleuth patiently assisted by his doggedly loyal and lovably pedantic friend and companion, Dr Watson. The stories are illustrated by the remarkable Sydney Paget from whom our images of Sherlock Holmes and his world derive and who first equipped Holmes with his famous deerstalker hat. The literary cult of Sherlock Holmes shows no sign of fading with time as each new generation comes to love and revere the penetrating mind and ruthless logic which were the undoing of so many Victorian master criminals.

Format:Taschenbuch
The Sherlock Holmes stories were originally published by the Strand Magazine. Wordsworth collects facsimiles (copies) of all the stories in this single book. The advantage of this approach is the originality. You get the original text, original sketches, original illustrations, and even some original advertisements from the magazine.
The major drawback is the limited quality of the archived material. There are strong variations in the brightness of the pages, ragged or smeared characters, irregular character spacing, and so on. With the book's format of 15 by 23 cm with a two column layout, the regular text is acceptable in size. But the occasional smaller font becomes very small indeed.
Wordsworth also released the facsimiles in a three volume edition in pocket book size (12,5 by 19,5 cm), where even the regular text is a challenge for the eyes. This complete collection with it's larger size is definitely an improvement over that. But if your eyes are not the best, you'll probably prefer an edition where the original text has been typeset from scratch with a larger font in a single column.

Nun gut. Ich wusste dass ich ein gebrauchtes Buch bestelle, allerdings war das Buch nicht besonders gepflegt worden. Lesen Sie weiter...

Childhood Memories
Having read all the stories as a child, I got the urge to read them again just recently. This "complete works" is absolutely ideal and incredibly reasonable.
