To many, The Strand is synonymous with Sherlock Holmes. | |
Founded in 1891 and edited by George Newnes, The Strand | |
was a general-interest | |
magazine, offering fiction, humor, current events, | |
political satire, celebrity | |
biographies and more. Sherlock Holmes | |
made his first appearance in The Strand | |
in 1891, and much of Doyle s other fiction also appears | |
in these volumes, along | |
with fiction by many of the world s best-known authors, | |
such as Mark Twain, | |
Jules Verne, Bret Harte, etc. The | |
magazine was also noted for its extensive use of | |
photography, which led to an | |
increased demand for stories about curiosities from | |
around the world that | |
could be illustrated with photos. Monthly | |
issues were compiled into 6-month bound volumes running | |
from January-June and | |
July-December. | |
