Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sherlock Holmes confronts the unknown in ten baffling tales that test his formidable mental powers, as well as his unshakable conviction that the world is a sane and rational place. From the enigma of spontaneous human combustion to the possibility that coins minted during the era of supposedly mythical Atlantis survived into Victorian times, London's premier consulting detective is tested and tried as never before, as his investigations cross the path of Algernon Blackwood's famed psychic physician, Dr. John Silence. Will Holmes's firm belief in an exclusively scientific reality hold--or must he at last give ground to the detested possibility that supernatural forces operate at will, unseen and only suspected? CONTENTS: Introduction The Singular Problem of the Extinguished Wicks The Mystery of the Spectral Shelter The Problem of the Surrey Samson The Uncanny Adventure of the Hammersmith Wonder The Repulsive Matter of the Bloodless Banker The Adventure of the Abominable Adder The Adventure of the Sorrowing Mudlark The Adventure of the Emerald Urchin The Adventure of the Expelled Master The Conundrum of the Questionable Coins

Download or read book The Return of Sherlock Holmes written by Arthur Conan Doyle and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Return of Sherlock Holmes is the third collection of Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, published in 1905. It includes stories published in The Strand Magazine in 1903 and 1904, bringing Holmes for the first time into the twentieth century. Doyle had memorably “killed off” Holmes in a struggle with his nemesis Professor Moriarty in the story “The Final Problem,” which had appeared in 1893 (and which is included in the collection The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes). Intense public demand for more Holmes material after that had led to Doyle writing the novel The Hound of the Baskervilles, and then finally to return to writing Holmes short stories once more. The first story in this collection, “The Adventure of the Empty House” finds Dr. Watson united once again with his old friend Sherlock Holmes, who explains how and why he faked his death at Reichenbach Falls. Apart from the leading story which “resurrects” Holmes, this collection contains a number of the best-known Holmes stories. “The Adventure of the Dancing Men” has Holmes deciphering a cryptogram to solve a mystery; encountering a callous blackmailer in “The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton;” working out why cheap busts of Napoleon are being shattered all over London; and possibly averting a major European war in “The Adventure of the Second Stain.”

Download or read book The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Vol 2 written by Nik Marcel and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES Vol.2: English & French IMPORTANT NOTE: The English text has been modernised and adapted, and has in large part been rewritten according to the French translation. THIS EDITION: Volume 2 of this bilingual edition of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes contains two stories: 'The Boscombe Valley Mystery'; and 'The Man with the Twisted Lip'. This volume includes an introductory section summarising the important aspects of French grammar. The digital edition also contains a translation skills test. The dual-language text has been arranged into small bilingual snippets for quick and easy cross-referencing. The content is ideal for assisting the intermediate language learner to transition to foreign language only content. Also, if the content is too difficult, there is other material put out by 2Langauge Books that can help. The book can be read in parallel text format (side by side), but can also be read only in English, or only in French. The eventual aim is to read with a comfortable level of understanding only in the foreign language. If you are a beginner, read the native language snippet first. If you are at an intermediate level, read the foreign language snippet first. The advanced level is like the beginners level, except you have to try and figure out the foreign language text, instead of having it provided. One way to do this is to cover the foreign text snippet. In the digital edition, you can take an intermediate or advanced level skills test. Many basic language books offer some form of audio support. Internet services - primarily news based radio stations - offer podcasts. Audio from television is an additional resource, and can be formatted for use on various digital platforms. However, if audio is an important component of your interest in languages, electronic devices that support quality text-to-speech (TTS) will likely be appealing. With a library card, TTS technology (in a device that supports the relevant content), and the above mentioned resources (as digital content), an entire language learning system is available for not much more than a cup of coffee! There is no substantial financial outlay to get you started. Furthermore, there are no additional ongoing fees (and updates), and there are no expiry dates on 'premium' content and resources.

Download or read book Master of Mystery written by Will Murray and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-26 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who is The Shadow? How did he come to be? Master of Mystery: The Rise of The Shadow delves into the murky origins of perhaps the most significant media creation of all time. Between 1930 and 1954, The Shadow was a dominant figure in American popular culture. A multi-media sensation, he emerged from the creative cauldron of the earliest days of radio drama, and soon migrated to magazines, comic books, film and eventually paperback books. Only Superman and Batman, who were created a few years later, rivaled The Shadow in global public recognition. A century later, this enigmatic personality and his famous mantra, "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" remains recognizable to new generations born long after his remarkable reign. Popular culture historian and novelist Will Murray explores radio's first superstar and talks to the writers and artists who took a nebulous radio personality and brought him to blazing life in the pages of more than 300 classic pulp novels. Packed with revelations, Master of Mystery reveals how The Shadow inspired the creation of Batman in 1939! Including rare interviews with Walter B. Gibson, Theodore Tinsley, John L. Nanovic, Graves Gladney and Edd Cartier.

During the Second Boer War, he was an army doctor in South Africa. When he came back to the United Kingdom, he opened his own practice and started writing crime books. He is best known for his thrilling stories about the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. He published four novels and more than 50 short-stories starring the detective and Dr Watson, and they play an important role in the history of crime fiction.
