The Stories and their Author
The Sherlock Holmes "canon" consists of 60 stories -- 56 short stories
and four novels -- by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. They were first published
between 1887 and 1927. In the United Kingdom and Canada the stories are
now out of copyright. In the United States the last dozen, those
published
after 1919, are still protected by copyright.
