The Beryl Coronet

The entire series of Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle is now available in large print, using the best practices for senior readers and those who are visually impaired. Each story includes the original Sherlock Holmes mystery as well as a note from the series editor, Craig Stephen Copland, the author of the New Sherlock Holmes Mysteries books. The Adventure of Beryl Coronet, on the surface another Sherlock Holmes story about a major jewel theft, was, for the Victorian reader a thinly disguised "roman à clef" poking fun at the royals and the banking establishment. Holmes must sort out the intense passions amongst members of a wealthy family and conclude that "when you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." These books are great gifts for someone you care about who needs a larger size print to be able to enjoy these wonderful stories.
