The Return of Sherlock Holmes

Arthur Conan Doyle

Sinopse

"I moved my head, and there at my elbow stood a tall, thin man, his face gaunt and ascetic... 'Holmes!' I cried. 'Is it really you?'"

Three years after his apparent death at the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes miraculously reappears in London. To a stunned Dr. Watson, he reveals the truth of his survival and his secret travels through Tibet and Persia. But there is no time for sentiment; a deadly marksman—the last vestige of Moriarty's gang—is waiting in the shadows of Baker Street with an air-gun, and only Holmes can spring the trap.

The Return of the Master: This collection marks the triumphant comeback of the detective who refused to stay dead. The Return of Sherlock Holmes features thirteen of his most ingenious cases. Solve the high-stakes code of The Adventure of the Dancing Men, track the bicycle tracks in The Adventure of the Priory School, and witness the dark justice meted out to the "King of Blackmailers" in The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton.

Evolution of a Partnership: The bond between Holmes and Watson is deeper than ever in these stories. As they navigate the shifting landscape of Edwardian London, they encounter everything from stolen international treaties to kidnapped aristocrats. This volume proves that Holmes's powers of observation and deduction were not dimmed by his absence; rather, they were sharpened into a more formidable weapon against the forces of crime.

The game is afoot once more. Purchase "The Return of Sherlock Holmes" today and experience the most famous comeback in literary history.

Count of Monte Cristo The -...

Alexandre Dumas

Thrown in prison for a crime he has not committed, Edmond Dantes is confined to the grim fortress of If. There he learns of a great hoard of treasure hidden on the Isle of Monte Cristo and he becomes determined not only to escape, but also to unearth the treasure and use it to plot the destruction of the three men responsible for his incarceration. Dumas' epic tale of suffering and retribution, inspired by a real-life case of wrongful imprisonment, was a huge popular success when it was first serialized in the 1840s.
VOLUME 3: If the Count of Monte Cristo had been for a long time familiar with the ways of Parisian society, he would have appreciated better the significance of the step which M. de Villefort had taken.

The Camel's Back

F. Scott Fitzgerald

F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Camel’s Back” is a sparkling Jazz Age comedy of pride, champagne, misunderstandings, and one extremely unfortunate camel costume. 
Perry Parkhurst, a perfectly polished young lawyer from Toledo, reaches the end of his rope when a quarrel with his glamorous sweetheart, Betty Medill, leaves him heartbroken and humiliated. In a moment of wounded bravado, he lets himself be swept into an evening of reckless celebration—one that ends with him renting a shabby camel costume for a high-society circus ball. 
What follows is a cascade of Fitzgerald-perfect chaos: mistaken identities, furious flirtations, a dancing camel, a drunken taxicab driver, and a cotillion gone completely off the rails. And at the heart of it all, a romance dangling between disaster and destiny. 
Equal parts farce and charm, “The Camel’s Back” showcases Fitzgerald’s gift for sharp social satire, irresistible characters, and the comedic madness of love. Performed with rich personality by Tony J. Martin, this classic short story comes alive with all the wit, warmth, and wild energy of the Roaring Twenties. 
A romp. A riot. A romance. And yes—there really is a camel.

Cultivation of Stable Habits The...

Booker T. Washington

Booker Taliaferro Washington (April 5, 1856 - November 14, 1915) was an American educator, author, orator, and adviser to several presidents of the United States. Between 1890 and 1915, Washington was the dominant leader in the African American community and of the contemporary black elite. Washington was from the last generation of black American leaders born into slavery and became the leading voice of the former slaves and their descendants. They were newly oppressed in the South by disenfranchisement and the Jim Crow discriminatory laws enacted in the post-Reconstruction Southern states in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
THE CULTIVATION OF STABLE HABITS: I am going to speak with you a few minutes this evening upon the matter of stability. I want you to understand when you start out in school, that no individual can accomplish anything unless he means to stick to what he undertakes.
