The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of Sherlock Holmes stories, originally published in 1893, by Arthur Conan Doyle. In The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, the consulting detective`s notoriety as the arch-despoiler of the schemes concocted by the criminal underworld at last gets the better of him. With Sherlock Holmes` reputation as the scourge of the criminal underworld preceding him, the ingenious detective, with the aid of Dr Watson, is confronted in these stories by some of his most fiendishly difficult cases yet. The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes were adapted for BBC Radio 4 in 1991–92, as part of Bert Coules` complete radio adaptation. Doyle had decided that these would be the last collection of Holmes` stories, and intended to kill him off in "The Final Problem". However, readers’ demand stimulated him to write another Holmes adventure. In "The Return of Sherlock Holmes", Holmes relates the aftermath of "The Final Problem", and how he survived.
