Some of the local people believe an old legend according to which the dog is not an earthly animal, but rather a supernatural hell-hound which inhabits the area's lonely dangerous moor and has haunted the Baskervilles for generations. It's up to Sherlock Holmes and Watson to show what the true nature of the hound is whilst seeing to it that no harm comes to Sir Henry Baskerville, Sir Charles' nephew and heir who has come to live in Baskerville Hall and claim his inheritance. Many commentators consider that The Hound of the Baskervilles is the best of the Sherlock Holmes stories and it is certainly one of the best-known detective stories ever written. An G m published this Irish-language translation by Niocl s T ib n in 1934. In this new edition of that translation, edited by Aibhist n Duibh, the text has been standardized to conform to the written Irish of today.
