About this product

Product Information

'Surely no man would take up my profession if it were not that danger attracts him.' In 'The Casebook', you can read the final twelve stories that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote about his brilliant detective. They are perhaps the most unusual and the darkest that he penned. Treachery, mutilation and the terrible consequences of infidelity are just some of the themes explored in these stories, along with atmospheric touches of the gothic, involving a bloodsucking vampire, crypts at midnight and strange bones in a furnace. The collection His Last Bow features some of Sherlock Holmes' most dramatic cases, including the vicious revenge intrigue connected with 'The Red Circle' and the insidious murders in 'The Devil's Foot'. The title story recounts how Sherlock Holmes is brought out of retirement to help the government foil a German plot on the eve of the First World War. These two fascinating sets of stories make a glorious farewell to the greatest detective of them all and his erstwhile companion, Dr Watson. AUTHOR: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a Scottish physician and writer. His works encompass a wide variety of genres, and it was his historical novels that he considered his finest work. However, posterity remembers him only as the creator of Sherlock Holmes. Each new generation discovers Holmes afresh, as the current TV and film adaptations demonstrate. Doyle created a character so well known that he exists in the borderline between fiction and reality.

Item arrived as described, but came with a price sticker on the back. When carefully peeling the sticker off the back cover of the book tore. The book appears to be made with poor quality materials. Seller was not in the least bit interested in helping, replying essentially "not our problem". I do not recommend this seller or this product. We bought a few hundred $ worth of these and similar items from different eBay suppliers. This was the only book that was rubbish, was was their support.

Book arrived in excellent condition; well packed. The seller is not at fault in the time it took for the book to be delivered by Australia Post. The seller even offered to return a percentage of the purchase price because of Australia Post's poor delivery service, a fine gesture but not taken up for the reason mentioned above.

  • the piece of my puzzle . an awesome book and great value

    This paperback of The casebook of Sherlock holmes is a brillant read and great value . Wordworth classics have gone a step futher by adding the original drawings from the Strand, my leather bound collectors editions do not have this extra goody. i brought this book because my collectors edition does not contain these stories.
