The fascinating and diverse stories collected in <b><font color=red>33 BY ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE – CLASSIC STORIES BY THE CREATOR OF SHERLOCK HOLMES </b></font> reflect the many facets of this legendary storyteller.

Doyle’s first published story appeared anonymously, later stories have been misattributed, pirated, suppressed or simply lost, while others appeared in ephemeral publications now inaccessible to the general reader. The range of background and styles here is immense – with tales of prospecting, the stage, the regimental mess, the recollections of the driver of a London ‘growler,’ vignettes of historical research, tales of mystery, excursions into erudite farce and a story of black prediction that postulates and alternative end to World War I.
