What Kind Of Problem Existed In The House Of The Baskervilles

[serege]

1) The family hertage was stolen
2) The will of its owner disaperared
3) The hound of the Baskerviles killed the wife of Sir Henry
4) The baskerville family was afficted by a curse

[jim360]

Technically none of them, but the book starts by claiming that (4) there is a curse.

[serege]

5) Sir Henry was kidnapped

Whatever you do, don't blame the dog.

This is obviously homwork. Read the book, that'll do it.

serege - your spelling is atrocious! Do a spell check before you hand your homework in!

Keep away from the Grimpen Mire if you value you sanity and your life.

[serege]

It is not my homework, and Olympics. I'm from Russia, help please. PS read the book, we can not answer!

[DJHawkes]

reading the book is the answer! not reading the book won't work will it? if it is not homework chill out and read the book and make notes about the salient points

[serege]

Perhaps you did not read the translation of this work in Russian. Yes, but I'm interested in the answer. Sorry for my english, only studying!

[SeaJayPea]

There's a very good resumé of the book here that seems to answer some of your questions:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hound_of_the_Baskervilles

You should also read the other three novels and 56 short stories. Although rather dated in their attitudes to both foreigners and women, they are very well-written tales.

so what is it then?

and what has olympics got to do with it?

if you are just curious and the book is a bit much - watch the tv shows etc

[Peter Pedant]

I agree with the others

Like you Serege I havent read the book so dont really know

[Peter Pedant]

for a long time I thought the Grimpen Mire was in The Moonstone.
You know the thing Limping Lucy falls into.

It isnt just in case someone goes off and starts reading.....
