This everlasting literary diary has been specially commissioned from Rosemary Gray. It has one page per day, and each contains apposite quotes from the stories or information about Conan Doyle, publication history and general Holmesiana. Because each day is dated, but not named, it is suitable for use in any calendar year - or perhaps as a birthday and anniversary book. The Sherlock Holmes Everlasting Diary is uniform in size with the rest of Macmillan Collector's Library, and will make an elegant and handy keepsake. It is illustrated throughout with original illustrations from the Strand Magazine, most of them from the pen of Sidney Paget. Sidney Paget is best known as the creator of the popular image of Sherlock Holmes, and his illustrations have influenced interpretations of the detective in fiction, film and drama. Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of beautifully bound gift editions of much loved classic titles. Bound in real cloth, printed on high quality paper, and featuring ribbon markers and gilt edges, Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and treasure.
