The Sign of the Four: GCSE English Illustrated Student Edition with wide annotation friendly margins

Description How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?   Sherlock Holmes’ second published case is one of great complexity, taking in subcontinental prisons, savage islanders, disappearing boats, murders in historic houses and a spectacularly mistaken dog. The tale of Miss Mary Morstan, a lady in the supremely uneviable position of having exceedingly valuable pearls sent to her once a year, and the disappearance of her father, The Sign of the Four is just as much about the ideals of justice and empire as it is about the thrilling mystery that it pleases to call its plot. Though the culprit behind the whole affair may be known from early on, knowing the man is one thing, distinctive limbs (or lack thereof) and all; finding him is quite another matter.   Following The Sign of the Four’s inclusion upon the new specification for GCSE English Literature (first examinations 2017), CBy Publishing hereby publishes the full, unabridged 1890 text, complete with F.H. Townsend’s illustrations to the 1903 edition, large, annotation friendly margins and a plethora of background material to aid student analysis. What has this student edition got over other editions? Wide margins that you can annotate in Illustrated Original text, word for word. Background information Designed for the new English GCSE Approved and tested on students!
