THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES by Arthur Conan Doyle, read by David Timson

David Timson was the first narrator to present the entire canon of Holmes stories. Recorded over a period of 10 years, and resulting in 70 hours of Holmes recordings, Timson's readings are fully dynamic. He presents the great variety of characters with imagination and memorable voices, and his portraits of Holmes and Watson are equally fine.
