Personally, I`d walk a million miles in tight boots just to read his letters to the milkman”. (Stephen Fry). ” Holmes has a timeless intelligence that puts him head, shoulders & deer-stalker above all other detectives”. (Alexander Mc Call Smith). ” Now, as in his lifetime, cab drivers, statesmen, academics, & raggedy-assed children sit spellbound at his feet. No wonder, then, if the pairing of Holmes & Watson has triggered more imitators than any other duo in literature”. (John Le Carre). Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) studied medicine at Edinburgh University, where he became the clerk to a surgeon whose diagnostic methods provided the model for the science of deduction perfected by Sherlock Holmes. He set up as a doctor & it was while waiting for patients that he began to write. Sherlock Holmes first appeared in ”A Study in Scarlet” (1887). The Holmes stories soon attracted such a following that Conan Doyle felt the character overshadowed his other work. In ” The Final Problem” (1893) Conan Doyle killed him off, but was obliged by public demand to restore the detective to life.
