To say it's Sherlock Holmes would be enough except for this 20 word limit imposed by Amazon :-). If you're a lover of classic mystery stories, as I am, this book will be a delight. The collection contains stories as chronicled by Sherlock Holmes' able bodied assistant James Watson, The mysteries are always intriguing to Holmes and unique in such a way that they pose some form of deductive challenge for the world's best deductive reasoner. Once you begin to read you will be taken back to old England in a time where the world was just beginning to use science as a means of development rather than warfare and chivalry was still alive and kicking, this book is a must read for all you book lovers!!
