Description
This edition of The Doings of Raffles Haw is the first appearance of this non-Sherlockian novel (published a year before the UK edition). It also contains what appears to be the first appearance in book form of “The Adventure of the Red-Headed League” and “The Boscombe Valley Mystery.” Many of the inconsistencies that characterize piracies are present in this volume. The cover, spine, and title page list Lovell, Coryell as the publisher; the spine bears a July 1892 date; but the title page verso has an 1891 copyright and lists the publisher as United States Book Company.
