The Mysteries of Max Carrados
Max Carrados, the celebrated blind detective appeared in a series of mystery stories and books written by Ernest Bramah, first published in 1914. The Max Carrados stories appeared alongside Sherlock Holmes stories in the Strand Magazine and Bramah was often billed above Arthur Conan Doyle. The Carrados stories frequently outsold the Holmes stories at the time, even if they have failed to achieve the same longevity.
