Summary

The Adventure of the Gloria Scott appeared in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. This story is unusual in that it is related mainly by Holmes rather than Watson. It is the very first case in which Holmes applied his powers of deduction to solve a case. Up till that time he had treated his deductive powers as a hobby.
