The Return of Sherlock Holmes
Volume 1
In The Empty House, within hours of Dr. Watson bumping into an aged bookseller, he and Holmes are back together after a three year hiatus, tracking a master criminal to their own front door. An obvious motive and copious clues point a murderous finger at Holmes own client in The Norwood Builder. The Dancing Men jettisons Holmes into the investigation of what had previously appeared to be merely childish scribbles, and in the end it is Holmes' own pistol clapped against the head of the malefactor. The Solitary Cyclist stalking Miss Violet Smith sends Holmes and Watson down a murky trail of passion and crime. In this first volume of The Return of Sherlock Holmes, the fearsome duo of Watson and Holmes are at the top of their form.
From the Back Cover Ten years after the supposed death of Sherlock Holmes at the Reichenbach Falls, Arthur Conan Doyle was to bow to popular pressure and breathe new life into his creation. To readers, Holmes reappears in Baker Street to embark on a new series of adventures.

Comeaux Much anticipated, as evidenced on a website "The Sherlock Holmes Society", I was not sure I would like this, having enjoyed the dramatizations by Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce on restored radio productions. Well, David Tomlinson reads Arthur Conan Doyle's story in top form, as if we were hearing Dr. Watson himself tell the story. He does all the voices, and will soon become a favorite audio reader. I completely enjoyed these readings. Plus, since they are the unabridged works, we hear every nuance that ACD wrote into the story, with no embellishment. The stories do hold up after so many years.

As a little boy I looked forward to all the broadcast plays every week. The BBC cast performed about 6 hours of radio plays every week. They still do, haven't you also noticed the number of TV plays broadcast by A and E? Most of them originate in the United Kingdom, Hornblower, ETC.. Now we can enjoy the performances by means of these Bantam Double Day releases. Very well done, by a very experienced cast, you can let your imagination run riot as you picture the various scenes in your mind. These are the classic stories by Sir Arther Conan Doyle. They have been around for 100 years or so, and time has not diminished their appeal. On this Audio Book you have 4 stories, each about 45 minutes long. If you haven't heard these before, then I don't wish to spoil the story line. If you know the stories then you will not be disappointed. Each story is presented in the time period of around the 1900's, you can almost smell the gas lighting, not to mention the foggy november weather, the horses, and so on. Order these from Amazon, and search for more of the BBC plays, they are great.

Stephen Franks Conan Doyle had long tired of Sherlock Holmes and his adventures, finally killing him off with the idea of moving on to "higher minded" literary pursuits. But the reading public was outraged! They demanded more Holmes. The public stormed the offices of Strand Magazine demonstrating and picketing the offices while wearing black mourning armbands. Later came the circulating petitions and, finally, the cancellation of more than 20,000 Strand Magazine subscriptions. It was the final straw.After much discussion with his publishers and finally weakening by the offers of outrageous sums of money ($45,000 for 13 stories by Collier's Magazine alone in 1903 dollars), Doyle finally relented and brought ol' Sherlock back from his watery grave after his mortal fall from Reichenbach Falls, along with his arch nemesis - Professor Moriarty. Hence, the title - The Return of Sherlock Holmes.This book is the collection of adventures as serialized by Collier's Magazine in 1903. The illustrations for the "Return" were done by the famous American illustrator, Frederic Dorr Steele. The artistic approach is quite different from the Strand's Sidney Paget, who illustrated the original 24 Holmes adventures. This was an American interpretation. History tells us that Mr. Steele used the famous American stage actor of Sherlock Holmes, William Gillette, for his illustrations despite their never having actually met.If you want to collect the adventures of Sherlock Holmes there are only two (out of print) editions to consider. The first is The Complete Adventures and Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes printed by Bramhall House * New York 1976. It is a Facsimile of the original 24 stories from the Strand Magazine as illustrated by Sidney Paget. But it is the wonderful Victorian cover art that makes this edition without equal!The Return of Sherlock Holmes is an excellent 1987 edition by The Mysterious Press * New York. Its American illustrations are more "modern" and different from Paget's work, and is the only other edition to consider if you are looking for the best and most complete collection of Sherlock Holmes stories. They are both easily found on the net and purchased used for $5.95 and $7.50 respectively through Amazon.com.I have looked at dozens if not hundreds of editions about Sherlock Holmes over the years, but these two editions are without question the most desirable copies. I possess twenty-two Holmes books in my private library. These two are my most prized.BTW. Sherlock Holmes has often been quoted saying "Elementary my dear Watson", where upon he promptly explains the crime's solution to a sometimes bewildered Dr. Watson. Fact is, Holmes never uttered that precise and worn phrase in any of the Doyle stories.
