About this book

The Doctor and the Detective: A Biography of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle by Booth, Martin. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780312242510.

This entertaining, smart biography of Arthur Conan Doyle presents a modern day interpretation of the man who, contrary to his best efforts, will always be known as the creator of the great detective, Sherlock Holmes. Doyle was, however, much more, as Booth shows us in this intriguing study of a man who thrived on the times in which he lived. While Holmes fans will be captivated by the various tidbits that offer insight into their heros creation; others will be fascinated by this living embodiment of the Victorian masculine ideal.
