DESCRIPTION:
J Wilson said Pluses and minuses. The stories are of course top notch, a legible typeface was used, the book is bound nicely with apparently high quality paper, good cover art, and some good pen and ink drawings that relate to the stories. The badThere is no table of contents, and the stories start on the same page the previous story ended on, even if there is only enough room for the title. Without story names on the top of each page within the story, this makes finding any particular story difficult unless you just read them straight through and use a book mark. This was disa. "Awesome" according to P.suedonym. Classic, we'll worth it. Barbara Cheney said The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes (Illustrated). The Sherlock Holmes books have always been delightful to read with many surprises. However, some of the conclusions now seem rather out-dated. They are usually predictable in that Holmes usually gets his man (or woman) at the end of the story. His nemesis adds a nice challenge to the stories. I especially enjoyed the way this book was organized in a casebook format. (Illustrations, though small, are always helpful.)
