The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, serialized in the Strand Magazine in 1891-2 and published in volume form in 1892, made Sherlock Holmes and his creator Arthur Conan Doyle famous. This, the first critical edition for twenty-five years, provides an authoritative text, a full textual apparatus, and a scholarly introduction and notes. It also reproduces a selection of the 104 illustrations by Sidney Paget which appeared in the first British edition.
