I already had another version if Complete Sherlock Holmes and I have read the great mysteries featuring Arthur Conan Doyle's Super Detective several times already, then why was I interested in ordering this book? because -

1. This is a DEFINITIVE Complete Sherlock Holmes collection - Which means you get each and every Holmes story written by Dr.Doyle.

2. Its a Facsimile edition - An honest reproduction of how the stories would've appeared in 'The Strand' more than a century ago.

3. Illus...

This is the complete, facsimile 'Strand' edition of the Sherlock Holmes stories.

What this means is that you get a faithful reproduction of the stories exactly as they were published in the Strand magazine so many years ago.

The 'Strand' edition stands apart from other run-of-the-mill editions due to the original illustrations of select scenes that were published in the Strand magazine.

These pictures take the experience of reading the book to an awesome new level.

There is no need to explain anything about the quality of the stories. The book was sent in fantastic package and the contents and printing were awesome. Better than expected. I had a previous edition of wordsworth classics for The Hound of Baskervilles but that book had very small fonts and less clarity illustartions.

Really fast delivery and the best quality of packing...I had the old version of this book in my childhood which somehow got lost..since then I searched for this classic as it has illustrations from the original strand magazine throughout every book store and every bookfair and even the internet..It seems flipkart is the only place where I found this imported version..thanks flipkart a ton...

This book is value for your money. Like everything, it has pros and cons as well. Among the good qualities on this book is that you get the whole of Sherlock Holmes for a reasonable price. Paper quality is good but the paper is a bit thin. Print quality is appreciable but when you touch the printed words, it fades a little. Moreover, the typography is well chosen and gives immense pleasure while reading. This book would've been better in Hardcover. Overall, I'll give it 5 Stars and consider i...

Complete Sherlock Holmes - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

World’s lone “Consulting detective”! You may wonder what kind of job description that is. Well, whenever the police force is out of depths when solving a case they consult Sherlock Holmes. He invented that job!

This book contains 4 novels and 56 short stories. Once you are in awe of Sherlock Holmes it is rather difficult to let go of this book. The way Holmes uses his own methods of solving a crime, science of deduction as he calls it, is aw...

I am a hardcore fan of Sherlock Holmes since my childhood. I have read all Sherlock Holmes stories and novels for innumerable times. I have the complete collection of all stories and novels. But, this book with original Figures from the Magazine is awesome. A Collector's Item.

Even though I know all the stories, I read this book completely once again. The original figures have made it a interesting reading for the repeated readers also.

Only one limitation of this book is its paper qualit...

The quality of the book is great. The font size is appropriate, and easy to read. The paper quality is also good for the price.
A 'must have' book for every Sherlock Holmes fan (and also for the lovers of the BBC show Sherlock), as the content is unchanged from what it appeared in the Strand Magazine, more than a century ago.
