The most famous of all fictional detectives in a selection of his most challenging cases, including the novel THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES.
Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) Born in Edinburgh, Conan Doyle practised as a doctor from 1882 to 1890. The first two Sherlock Holmes novels, A STUDY IN SCARLET and THE SIGN OF FOUR, were published in 1887 and 1890, but it was the publication in the STRAND MAGAZINE from 1891 onwards of the immortal short stories, starting with 'A Scandal in Bohemia', that brought him real fame. The complete canon was voted the greatest crime series of all time by the Mystery Writers of America.
