Book Description

The Return of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of 13 Sherlock Holmes stories, originally published in 1903-1904, by Arthur Conan Doyle. The book was first published on March 7, 1905 by Georges Newnes, Ltd and in a Colonial edition by Longmans. 30,000 copies were made of the initial print run. The US edition by McClure, Phillips & Co. added another 28,000 to the run. This was the first Holmes collection since 1893, when Holmes had "died" in "The Adventure of the Final Problem". Having published The Hound of the Baskervilles in 1901–1902 (although setting it before Holmes' death) Doyle came under intense pressure to revive his famous character.

    Even though some of the facts are repeated, most of the facts are really interesting! I loved it!

    For me, this book lost all of its entertainment value due the repetition of facts.

    i read the first 20 pages online, and found one "fact" that was repeated once, another that was repeated twice, and one that was written twice in the same space. i've also found some myths that have now been proven to be exactly that, but could possibly still be spread on the internet.also, i found this book to be much less than "fascinating" or "interesting"
