Who is Holmes? The world's most famous detective? A drug addict with a heart as cold as ice? A millstone around the neck of his creator? He's all of these things and much, much more.  An iconic fictional creation, inseparable from his partner-in-crime Dr John Watson, Sherlock Holmes has charmed and fascinated millions of people around the world since his first appearance over a century ago. This book takes a look at the extensive collection of Sherlock stories penned by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, as well as some of the sleuth's stage and screen incarnations.
