“A Study in Scarlet” Part 1 - Chapter 1: Mr. Sherlock Holmes
John H. Watson, M.D., the Army Medical, came back to England from the second war in Afghanistan, in an attempt to recover from his ruined health. When he decides to find an affordable place to live in London, his old acquaintance, Stamford, brings him a seemingly ideal arrangement. And so… Watson meets Holmes.

**********
Welcome back to our channel! Our new story is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s “A Study in Scarlet.” We thought it is a good story to read after finishing “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes” series, because it describes how the friendship of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson gets started. 

The story consists of two parts. In the first part, Conan Doyle writes about how Holmes and Watson meet and their intimate friendship evolves, by being involved in a murder case together. It is written in an exciting fashion to draw you in. By contrast, part two has a completely different color. It feels like a different story at the beginning, and then slowly connects into current events…

Since this was the first Sherlock Holmes story where the characters were introduced, there are no illustrations existing done by Sidney Paget, like all the other Holmes stories. We added some of Paget’s images as a base and created some more. We hope you enjoy Richard's take on this classic detective story!
