Although he is best known to the public as the author of the Sherlock Holmes stories and other pioneering works of detective fiction, Arthur Conan Doyle successfully contributed to other genres, such as historical fiction, as demonstrated by this collection he compiled in 1922. These vivid and enthralling stories - which take the reader to Roman Britain, ancient Carthage, Mecca at the time of the Prophet Muhammad and many other evocative settings - showcase the author's knack for bringing to life diverse times and places and crafting enduring narratives. Tales of Long Ago is an entertaining and invaluable read for all those interested in this lesser-known facet of Conan Doyle's writing.

Classics for Your Collection: goo.gl/U80LCr --------- The story begins with Watson and Holmes relaxing in Cornwall when they are approached by the local Vicar and the man living with him asking for help. Watson is not happy about the intrusion because he believes that his friend needs to rest but Holmes is immediately excited by the chance to use his brain and the truth is that they really do need Holmes help. The mystery is the brother and sister of the man living with the vicar have had a strange tragedy. He had spent the night with his brothers and sister visiting and playing whist. The next morning he discovers a strange scene. Something clearly has happened just moments after he had left. His sister is still sitting at the table, but is dead, and both of his brothers have seemingly had some type of nervous break down as they are laughing and singing. The explanation everyone else has given is that this is the work of the Devil. Holmes and Watson as skeptical that this is a case of demonic attack but they at first have no other real explanation. Holmes questions everyone and discovers that the maid who found them not only fainted when she came in but became sick. Shortly afterward the Vicar arrives in a near panic. It seems that the third brother, who had left just before the events has died, apparently of the same thing. This is odd to Holmes because he has already deduced that it was he who had thrown something into the fire to poison his brothers and sister. This leaves a second mystery which is who killed the murderer. The answer turns out to be...

La historia tiene lugar en 1888, con un flashback basado en el libro de Allan Pinkerton sobre los Molly Maguires en las minas de carb n de Pennsylvania, en 1875. La novela est dividida en dos partes bien diferenciadas. En la primera parte, Sherlock Holmes, utilizando sus t cnicas habituales, descubre la identidad de un homicida. Una vez detenido el asesino, la historia vuelve hacia atr s en el tiempo, y narra en tercera persona los antecedentes del asesino y la v ctima. Esta narraci n est basada en los Molly Maguires, una organizaci n que existi realmente en Estados Unidos. Al final se cuenta brevemente como se lleg a la situaci n inicial y los motivos del asesinato, enlazando ambas historias. En este sentido, El valle del terror, la ltima novela de Sherlock Holmes, imita la estructura entonces Conan Doyle sea el primero de varios escritores que ignora el hecho, narrado en El problema final, de que el doctor Watson oy hablar de Moriarty poco antes de su muerte, sin existir ninguna aventura en com n. El nombre de El valle del terror es una traducci n del nombre de un valle en el sur de Francia. Durante la poca de las cruzadas este valle fue popularizado por los c taros, y algunos creen que el Santo Grial lleg hasta all desde Tierra Santa. Es clara la influencia de esta obra en una posterior del escrito norteamericano Dashiell Hammet, titulada "Cosecha roja." Muchos consideran que "El valle del terror" anticipa a la novela negra como g nero.
The desire for romance and money threaten to destroy the Victorian world of the characters in this exciting novel.
