The Supernatural Tales of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, edited by Peter Haining

Here are stories of ghosts and demons, vampires, werewolves, and ghouls-and even reanimated mummies! Spine-chilling tales of the supernatural to make your scalp tingle and your pulse race. Each tale is introduced with an intriguing account of its origin and sometimes the unbelievably strange but true facts upon which it is based.

 

Sherlock Holmes : The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle

For generations, the legend has been passed down. A satanic tale of a gigantic hell-hound, a devil incarnate who stalks the wastes of Dartmoor wreaking a bloody and terrible vengeance upon the heirs of the house of Baskerville.
While a country doctor brings the bizarre and seemingly unearthly circumstances surrounding the death of Sir Charles Baskerville to the attention of Sherlock Holmes, it is the beginning of one of the strangest cases of the great detective's career. Convinced by the arrival of an extraordinary warning that Sir Charles' heir, Henry, is in danger of his life, Holmes dispatches Dr. Watson to accompany the young man to the dark and somber house deep within the bleak Devon moor. With peril at every hand and a murderous escaped convict at large, the mystery deepens. Is the ancient legend true, or is the hideous creature merely a part of a sinister conspiracy whose origins are all too diabolically human?

 

Through The Magic Door by Arthur Conan Doyle

The myriad signiÞcances of a serious reader’s library is evocatively demonstrated in this relatively unknown little work by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Through the Magic Door is Conan Doyle’s casually eloquent tour of the cherished books on his own shelves, and I can’t recall reading anything which better conveys a sense of what it means to take books to heart. As the author surveys the contents of his treasured bookroom - “no volume there which is not a dear, personal friend” - each book prompts an essay in appreciation, affectionate reflections both personal and literary.

 

His Last Bow by Arthur Conan Doyle

The title story of this collection refers to Holmes' emergence from retirement to help the government fight the German threat at the approach of the First World War. Several of the detective's earlier cases complete the volume, including "Wisteria Lodge," "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax," and "The Dying Detective."
