Inhaltsangabe

These early works by Arthur Conan Doyle were originally published in the early 20th century and we are now republishing them with a brand new introductory biography as part of our Professor Challenger series. Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1859. It was between 1876 and 1881, while studying medicine at the University of Edinburgh, that he began writing short stories, and his first piece was published in Chambers's Edinburgh Journal before he was 20. In 1887, Conan Doyle's first significant work, A Study in Scarlet, appeared in Beeton's Christmas Annual. It featured the first appearance of detective Sherlock Holmes, the protagonist who was to eventually make Conan Doyle's reputation. A prolific writer, Conan Doyle continued to produce a range of fictional works over the following years. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a Scottish physician and author whose creation of Sherlock Holmes transformed popular literature and established many of the conventions of modern detective fiction. First appearing in 1887, Holmes and Dr Watson became enduring cultural figures, celebrated for their sharp reasoning, vivid London milieu, and the distinctive narrative voice of Watson's case chronicles. Beyond Holmes, Doyle wrote historical novels, adventure fiction, plays, journalism, and nonfiction, and remains one of the most widely read and adapted writers in the English language.
