Sherlock Holmes is probably the most famous detective in history—real or fictional. His powers of observation and deduction are legendary. His iconic image portrays the quintessential depiction of a detective.

 

The “Extra” Short Stories is a collection of four short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle that did not make it into the volumes of Sherlock Holmes. Due to the shortness of two of them and the other two not mentioning Holmes by name, many Sherlock Holmes fans do not consider them “real” Sherlock Holmes stories.

“Elementary, my dear Watson,” is perhaps the most well-known phrase of the Sherlock Holmes stories. The only problem is, that phrase never actually appears in any of the manuscripts written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Caveat; Holmes did often use the word “elementary” to describe his deductions and did address Watson as “my dear Watson,” but he never combined the two into a single phrase.
