Arthur Conan-Doyle
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) 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.The Five Orange-Pips and Other Cases is also published in the Penguin English Library.

The hound of the Baskervilles
Il mastino dei Baskerville è il capolavoro di sir Arthur Conan Doyle, l'impresa definitiva di Sherlock Holmes, la più spettacolare, la più complessa, una perfetta fusione tra racconto del terrore e giallo classico. Cedendo alle pressanti richieste dei lettori e dell'editore, Conan Doyle accettò di "resuscitare" con questo romanzo la sua creatura letteraria, il celebre detective che aveva "ucciso" nel racconto Il problema finale, pubblicato otto anni prima. La storia, ambientata nella landa desolata di Dartmoor, nel Devon, tra nebbie e paludi, è quanto mai suggestiva e carica di suspence. Un'oscura maledizione aleggia sulla casata dei Baskerville. Alla sua origine, un efferato crimine commesso da sir Hugo Baskerville due secoli prima. Da allora un mostro sanguinario, un enorme cane nero dagli occhi infernali, sembra perseguitare gli eredi maschi di Baskerville Hall, tutti morti in modo violento. Aiutato dal fedele Watson, Holmes tenterà, con la sua impareggiabile logica e il suo formidabile dinamismo, di districare la matassa che avvolge il caso più difficile e pericoloso che abbia mai dovuto affrontare.

A Study in Scarlet
- A Study in Scarlet is an 1887 detective novel written by Arthur Conan Doyle. The story marks the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, who would become the most famous detective duo in popular fiction. The book's title derives from a speech given by Holmes, a consulting detective, to his friend and chronicler Watson on the nature of his work, in which he describes the story's murder investigation as his "study in scarlet" "There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it."- The story, and its main characters, attracted little public interest when it first appeared. Only 11 complete copies of the magazine in which the story first appeared, Beeton's Christmas Annual for 1887, are known to exist now and they have considerable value. Although Conan Doyle wrote 56 short stories featuring Holmes, A Study in Scarlet is one of only four full-length novels in the original canon. - The novel was followed by The Sign of the Four, published in 1890. A Study in Scarlet was the first work of detective fiction to incorporate the magnifying glass as an investigative tool.

The Poison Belt by Arthur Conan Doyle, Fiction, Classics
Written in 1913, roughly a year before the outbreak of World War I, much of it takes place in a single room in Challenger's house in Sussex.This would be the last story written about Challenger until the 1920s, by which time Doyle's spiritualist beliefs had begun to influence his writing.It was upon Friday, the twenty-seventh of August -- a date forever memorable in the history of the world. . . . It is imperative that now at once, while these stupendous events are still clear in my mind, I should set them down with that exactness of detail which time may blur. But even as I do so, I am overwhelmed by the wonder of the fact that it should be our little group of the "Lost World" -- Professor Challenger, Professor Summerlee, Lord John Roxton, and myself -- who have passed through this amazing experience. When, some years ago, I chronicled in the Daily Gazette our epoch-making journey in South America, I little thought that it should ever fall to my lot to tell an even stranger personal experience, one which is unique in all human annals and must stand out in the records of history as a great peak among the humble foothills which surround it. The event itself will always be marvelous, but the circumstances that we four were together at the time of this extraordinary episode came about in a most natural and, indeed, inevitable fashion. I will explain the events which led up to it as shortly and as clearly as I can, though I am well aware that the fuller the detail upon such a subject the more welcome it will be to the reader, for the public curiosity has been and still is insatiable. It was upon Friday, the twenty-seventh of August -- a date forever memorable in the history of the world. . . .

Kolmikko
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ehti pitkän kirjailijanuransa aikana kirjoittaa monenlaista. Vaikka hänet muistetaankin parhaiten Sherlock Holmes -tarinoistaan, hänen laajassa tuotannossaan on paljon muutakin. Tämän kokoelman kertomukset ilmestyivät alun perin vuosina 1918 - 23. Niissä Doyle kuvaa lapsiaan katselemassa maailmaa näkökulmista, jotka aikuiselle saattavat olla vieraita mutta jotka huvittavuudessaankin ovat oivaltavia.Kolmikko tarjoaa välähdyksiä sadan vuoden takaiseen Iso-Britanniaan. Aika oli toinen, mutta lapset olivat lapsia silloinkin. He tutkivat maailmaa, loivat mielikuvituksessaan leikkejä ja olivat kiinnostuneita mitä erilaisimmista asioista. Välillä ääneen pääsee myös lasten Isukki, joka paitsi osaa suunnitella hienoja leikkejä myös luennoi mielellään vaikkapa kriketistä tai nyrkkeilyn historiasta.
