Marian H | A Study in Scarlet Revisited - Sherlock Holmes 1 @marianhreads | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
In November 1887, Sherlock Holmes made a first, underwhelming appearance in Beeton's Christmas Annual. This tale of murder and the Wild West makes for an unlikely Christmas story, but it was the first glimmer of Arthur Conan Doyle's iconic character and many adventures to come. Let's step back in time to talk about the story and its themes. (Pray ignore the motorcars scuttling by - some of Mr Verne's imagination must have escaped from his pages!)
