Adventures of Huckleberry Finn as Retold by Sherlock Holmes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781499323153)

Illustrated Enter Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.... "I'm quite interested to learn more about your adventures with Huck Finn," Dr. Watson began. "I've been thinking on it all day. What happened to the detective agency he founded under your guidance? Was it a success, as you expected?" "Well, my dear Watson, Huck didn't set up shop as a detective until he'd had a great many more adventures than the ones we've discussed, and until he had matured from an impatient boy to a determined young man. As you know, it takes a great deal of experience to become a good investigator. However, Huck and his friend Jim, who was a runaway slave if you recall, eventually made it out to the untamed American West and began a new chapter in their lives." "I remember that Huck had many adventures with his comrade, Tom Sawyer. Did Huck relate those stories to you during your years together at Yale?" "Quite colorfully," answered Sherlock. "Would you like to hear what he told me?" "That would be a great delight. Should we include this story in our literary posterity?" "Indubitably-we must tie all of these connecting stories together, especially as they may relate in any way to the Sovereign Order of Monte Cristo. Our records will be of great value to those in future generations." "I'm ready to write, then, and you are such a good storyteller that it will give me energy long into the night. Where should we begin?"
