For this assignment, you will use Juxta Editions to make a simple digital edition of a Sherlock Holmes story of your choosing. You will use page images either from the first edition of Adventures of Sherlock Holmes or from the original printing in The Strand Magazine. You will upload the page images and make a transcription of the story’s text to create your digital edition. You will then use Juxta Editions’s “Create a Website” option to publish your digital edition.
