Riassunto:

Fans of Sherlock Holmes can revisit the great detective's most famous cases'as compiled by Dr. John Watson, of course'in this portable bind-up of The Case Files of Sherlock Holmes and The Return of Sherlock Holmes.
 
Delve deeper into the world of Sherlock Holmes! The Case Notes of Sherlock Holmes contains the files on which Watson based his later, more elaborate accounts of Holmes's investigations. Inside this scrapbook you'll find letters, sketches, newspaper articles, and other documents sometimes mentioned in the more familiar forms of these stories, but often neglected. They include Watson's sketches of the paw prints discovered near Sir Charles Baskerville's body, Holmes's drawings and notes of the 'Dancing Men," and Sherlock Holmes's heartrending letter to Watson before his violent struggle with Moriarty in 'the Final Problem.' Painstakingly researched, beautifully designed and packaged, and rich in period detail, this book brings 221B Baker Street vividly to life.
 

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Sherlock Holmes: The Case Notes are the files on which Watson based his later, more elaborate accounts of Holmes' investigations. They take the form of a scrapbook containing letters, sketches, newspaper articles and other documents sometimes mentioned in the more familiar forms of these stories, but often neglecting detail. Within these pages you will find Watson's sketches of the paw prints discovered near the body of Sir Charles Baskerville, drawings and notes of the "Dancing Men" from Holmes's sketchbook, and Sherlock Holmes's final, heart-rending letter to Watson before his violent struggle with Moriarty in "The Final Problem".

Painstakingly researched, beautifully designed and packaged, and rich in period detail, this is a book that brings the world of 221B Baker Street vividly to life. It is a volume that no Sherlock Holmes fan will want to be without.
