About the author

Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle was a Scottish writer and physician. He created the character Sherlock Holmes in 1887 for A Study in Scarlet, the first of four novels and fifty-six short stories about Holmes and Dr. Watson. The Sherlock Holmes stories are milestones in the field of crime fiction.

Doyle was a prolific writer. In addition to the Holmes stories, his works include fantasy and science fiction stories about Professor Challenger, and humorous stories about the Napoleonic soldier Brigadier Gerard, as well as plays, romances, poetry, non-fiction, and historical novels. One of Doyle's early short stories, "J. Habakuk Jephson's Statement" (1884), helped to popularise the mystery of the brigantine Mary Celeste, found drifting at sea with no crew member aboard.

Reviews

[Gaëlle Dubois · Rating 5 out of 5]

Les six napoléon : c'est très satisfaisant, même si je connaissais le dénouement, j'adore voir comment Holmes est intelligent et vaniteux.
Deuxième nouvelle déjà lue dans un autre recueil
Silver blaze : un retournement de situation très bien amené, j'aurais dû le voir venir, très satisfaisant
Le traité naval: très satisfaisant encore une fois, le suspect est logique et la résolution bien.
