The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes cover

This exciting volume is the first scholarly edition of The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. Includes the only current textual apparatus collated from different iterations of the stories along with a detailed introduction and an essay on the text based on contemporary scholarship.

The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes not only features the great detective's earliest known cases, it also introduces his older and smarter brother Mycroft and brings us face to face with that Napoleon of Crime, the chilling Professor Moriarty. This is, in short, the volume through which Conan Doyle dramatically enlarges the Holmesian universe--and just one reason why any serious Sherlockian will want a copy of these stories in this handsome Edinburgh edition, superbly introduced and crisply annotated by Jonathan Cranfield. -- Michael Dirda, author of the Edgar Award-winning On Conan Doyle
