作者简介

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (18591930) was born in Edinburgh and studied medicine at the university there, after an education in Jesuit schools in Lancashire and Austria. He had an active career as a doctor and opthalmologist, including volunteering in Bloemfontein during the Boer War, but also in the public sphere as Deputy-Lieutenant of Surrey, writer of the widely read historical works and political pamphlets, vociferous opponent of miscarriages of justice and twice parliamentary candidate (although he was never elected). Yet it was for his brilliant creation of the first scientific detective, Sherlock Holmes, that he achieved great fame - so great that after he killed Sherlock off to concentrate more on his historical work, he was forced to bring the character back to life in The Hound of the Baskervilles. In later years, the Jesuit-educated Conan Doyle converted to Spiritualism, writing works such as The Coming of the Fairies, and was a friend of the magician Houdini. He died of a heart attack in 1930, at the age of seventy-one.

　　亚瑟·柯南·道尔爵士，1859年生于苏格兰爱丁堡。曾入爱丁堡大学医学院就读，后定居伦敦。由于并不热衷医务，使他有许多空闲时间，从事福尔摩斯探案的书写工作。第一篇成名作品《暗红色研究》于1886年完成。1890年在《四个人的签名》出版后，他放弃了医务专心写作。柯南·道尔一生多彩多姿且曲折离奇。他是个历史学家、捕鲸者、运动员、战地通讯记者及唯心论者。他曾亲自参与两件审判不公的案子，并运用他的侦探技巧证实那罪犯其实是清白的。
　　1902年，柯南·道尔因在波尔战争中于南非野战医院的优异表现荣封爵士。逝于1930年。

精彩书评

"This volume, authorized by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's estate, contains all 4 full-length novels and all 56 short stories featuring Sherlock Holmes. At over a thousand pages, the weighty tome is a perfect gift for budding amateur sleuths, and it is an ideal companion for a long stay on a desert island (or a leisurely trip through the English countryside). As the reader wades past the tense introductions of A Study in Scarlet and moves towards such classic tales as The Hound of the Baskervilles, "The Adventure of the Speckled Band," and "The Final Problem," she is sure to draw her own conclusions about Holmes's veiled past and his quirky relationship with his "Boswell," Watson. Doyle never revealed much about Holmes's early life, but the joy of reading the complete Holmes is assembling the trivia of each story into something like a portrait of the detective and his creator. By the end of the long journey through London and across Europe (with a long stopover at Reichenbach Falls), one is apt to have found a friend for life".
