Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a Scottish author best known for his Sherlock Holmes stories (a landmark of detective fiction). However, he is also wrote The Lost World, non-fiction historical books, romance, science fiction, plays and more. Much like the assistant and biographer of Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, Conan Doyle was a physician.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle made his literary debut in 1885 with The Surgeon of Gaster Fell. Two years later, he would go on to publish his first Sherlock Holmes novel, A Study in Scarlet.
