    <![CDATA[This volume, authorized by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's estate, contains all 4 full-length novels and all 56 short stories featuring Sherlock Holmes. At over a thousand pages, the weighty tome is a perfect gift for budding amateur sleuths, and it is an ideal companion for a long stay on a desert island (or a leisurely trip through the English countryside). As the reader wades past the tense introductions of <em>A Study in Scarlet</em> and moves towards such classic tales as <em>The Hound of the Baskervilles</em>, &quot;The Adventure of the Speckled Band,&quot; and &quot;The Final Problem,&quot; she is sure to draw her own conclusions about Holmes's veiled past and his quirky relationship with his &quot;Boswell,&quot; Watson. Doyle never revealed much about Holmes's early life, but the joy of reading the complete Holmes is assembling the trivia of each story into something like a portrait of the detective and his creator. By the end of the long journey through London and across Europe (with a long stopover at Reichenbach Falls), one is apt to have found a friend for life. <em>--Patrick O'Kelley</em> ]]>
