Synopsis

William S. Baring-Gould's two-volume 1967 edition of the complete Sherlock Holmes canon, published by Clarkson N. Potter. It gathers all four novels and fifty-six short stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, arranged in the chronological order of the adventures rather than the order in which Doyle published them.

Baring-Gould surrounds Doyle's text with notes on the dating of each case, the people and places named, discrepancies in Watson's account, and the Sherlockian scholarship that grew up around the stories, with more than a hundred pages of introductory material.

It is a reading edition for fans who want the canon and the game of the Great Detective's world in one set.
