Book Description
Reginald Musgrave, a school friend of Holmes, saw his butler searching through private family papers. The butler Brunton got caught red handed with an ancestral ritual of the Musgraves as well. The ritual seemed worthless to the family but Brunton was determined to decipher it. A few days after Brunton disappeared. "The Adventure of the Musgrave Ritual" is a part of "The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes". Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Scotland and studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh. After his studies, he worked as a ship’s surgeon on various boats. 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. Other than the Sherlock Holmes series, Doyle wrote around thirty more books, in genres such as science-fiction, fantasy, historical novels, but also poetry, plays, and non-fiction.

Book Description
No mystery is too challenging for the infamous detective Sherlock Holmes and his partner, Dr. Watson. Holmes is at his best when the job seems impossible—or just plain absurd. From cases involving a strange group for red-headed men to a missing thumb, Holmes uses his powers of observation and deduction to solve even the weirdest mysteries. Scottish author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published his first twelve original Sherlock Holmes short stories as serials in the UK's Strand Magazine from 1891-1892. This unabridged collection of the stories is taken from the book form, originally published in 1892.

Book Description
Here is a collection of twelve stories Arthur Conan Coyle himself selected as the best adventures of The Great Detective from the 60-story canon. Each is illustrated with vivid, vintage artwork. Doyle published his last tale of Sherlock Holmes in 1927. These twelve stories are presented in the chronological order of the events they recount, as far as can be ascertained. The lead-off story, The Musgrave Ritual, relates an adventure that Holmes had before he met Watson, and is one of the rare stories narrated by Holmes himself. The book ends with The Second Stain, which mentions Holmes's professional career retirement in 1903 (although he would continue to take on the odd case up through 1914) The majority of the illustrations are by Sidney Paget, who famously illustrated the first appearances of these stories in the Strand Magazine, the periodical in which most of the Sherlock Holmes stories first appeared.
