The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin: Arsène Lupin Versus Herlock Sholmes by Maurice LeBlanc, translated from the French by George Morehead
Arsène Lupin vs. Herlock Sholmes is a collection of two adventures of Arsène Lupin, written by Maurice Leblanc. These adventures feature a match of wits between Lupin and Herlock Sholmes, a transparent reference to Sherlock Holmes, the hero of Conan Doyle's detective stories. It follows the appearance of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar, in which Sherlock Holmes also makes an appearance in "Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too Late". The collection was translated into English as Arsène Lupin versus Holmlock Shears in England and The Blonde Lady in the United States.
The two stories were initially published in the magazine Je sais tout from November 1906. The first story, The Blonde Lady, was published from November 1906 to April 1907, while the second, The Jewish Lamp, appeared in September and October 1907. The collection of these two stories was published with modifications in February 1908, and in 1914, another edition appeared with further modifications. The English translations appeared in 1910.
The collection contains the following stories:
The Blonde Lady
Chapter 1. Lottery Ticket No. 514.
Chapter 2. The Blue Diamond.
Chapter 3. Herlock Sholmes Opens Hostilities.
Chapter 4. Light in the Darkness.
Chapter 5. An Abduction.
Chapter 6. Second Arrest of Arsène Lupin.
The Jewish Lamp
Chapter 1. The Jewish Lamp.
Chapter 2. The Shipwreck.
