Sherlock Holmes

If you have not read Holmes you have missed the finest mind on this side of the planet.

Sir Doyle's fictional detective is popular more for his rock-solid line of logic rather than plot twists.

Beginning 1887, Holmes dominated the transatlantic charts for the next four decades! The entire collection is now available online for free.

Holmes series also capture the best of Victorian prose, currency, diet, dress, pastime and lifestyle.

You need to be atleast a teenager to grasp the severe logic flow in Holmes series.

His most famous punch dialogue came in 1890 novel The Sign of Four:
"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth!"

English detectives - Sherlock Holmes & James Bond - definitely have style and know how to flaunt it.

Ponder on it.
