In the short stories of Sherlock Holmes and the movie, there was many differences. From my observations of reading the short stories I noticed that nowhere in the short stories was mentioned about him in a car. But in the movie there is a few scenes where there’s cars and I saw him in one of them. From this in formation I have to say that the short stories and movie take place in different time periods. Another difference I found was the way Sherlock Holmes acted. His attitude in the book was…
Not at all like past parts, chapters 5 and 6 contain longer, more rational stories. I especially delighted in the story, "Simply Trying to Help," relating the adventure of a rollover mishap in a group vehicle and a brilliant, nearby man's endeavor to assist. The disparity of the first and second parts of the book most likely mirrors the development of the Shovel Bum zine itself. The book finishes up with an area…

Evidence is essential to solving a case. There are many different strategies to solve one. Some include using criminalistics, forensic serology, and forensic evidence. Different strategies may give more accurate results in figuring out a case. However, in “Forensic: Evidence, Clues, and Investigation” by Andrea Campbell, forensic evidence is the most important to use when attempting to solve a crime. Forensic evidence is any physical evidence pulled from the scene or collected throughout the…
Professor Moriarty was Sherlock Holmes's arch-enemy from the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle series of Sherlock Holmes.

He is mentioned in the books "His Last Bow" and "The Valley of Fear". Professor Moriarty was a good villian because he was a mathemtic pshycopath, consulting criminal, and obsessed with destroying Sherlock Holmes. Professor Moriarty was a pshycopath who…

In article entitled, “Sherlock Holmes: Father of Scientific Crime and Detection” written by Stanton O. Berg, he addresses that there is more to the Holmes stories than simply providing entertainment. “I feel a strong case can be made that the famous sleuth had a decided stimulating influence on the development of modem scientific crime detection” (Berg 446). Sherlock Holmes as the inspiration for crime detection was a theory that he was interested…
