Ratings and reviews

This is another collection of stories which I feel are more fun then say, The Adventures... I expected a little more in The Adventure of The Final Problem though, which is why I picked this up to begin with.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1859. Before starting his writing career, Doyle attended medical school, where he met the professor who would later inspire his most famous creation, Sherlock Holmes. A Study in Scarlet was Doyle's first novel; he would go on to write more than sixty stories featuring Sherlock Holmes. He died in England in 1930.
