Contains the first appearance of Doyle's 'Round the Fire' stories II-VII. No. II is 'The Story of the Man with the Watches' (illustrated by Frank Craig); No. III is 'The Story of the Lost Special' (illustrated by Max Cowper). These two stories are widely recognised by Holmesians as the two most important 'lost' Holmes adventures. Both stories feature an unnamed amateur reasoner clearly intended by Doyle to be identified by his readers as Holmes himself.
