How was The Hound of the Baskervilles different from all of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stories?
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote four Sherlock Holmes novels and fifty six short stories. "The Hound of the Baskervilles" was the third Sherlock Holmes novel. Each of the other novels have two parts, the first part is where Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson work out the clues to track down the criminal(s) and the second part explains the back story of why the criminal(s) did what they did and does not feature Sherlock Holmes until the very end. "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is different because it does not have this second part (which are widely seen as slow and boring) and so flows better than the other novels. This is why "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is viewed as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's best Sherlock Holmes novel. Um, "The Sign of Four" is in one part.

Wikipedia has this information: "The 'Sherlock Holmes' name was derived from a pair of cricketers � however some early notes give his name as Sherrinford Holmes.
