He is best known for his creation of Sherlock Holmes - a brilliant London-based detective famous for his logical thinking and ability to solve difficult cases. Born in Edinburgh in 1859 into a prosperous family, Doyle was strongly influenced by his mother, who was a well-educated woman. In his early childhood, she used to tell him vivid stories which sparked his imagination. The second person who had a great impact on his writing career was Dr Joseph Bell, a professor at the medical school where Doyle studied from 1876 to 1881. Dr Bell’s keen powers of observation later inspired Doyle to create his fictional detective character, Sherlock Holmes. Doyle’s active life provided him with vivid experiences for his stories. With a great love for adventure, he would never miss a chance to travel. He took a surgeon’s position on a whaling ship sailing for the Arctic Circle. He served as a volunteer doctor in the Langman Hospital in South Africa during the War of Independence in 1900. He also acted as a war journalist during the First World War. Doyle’s writing career started during his time at medical school. After graduation, he set up his own medical practice, which was not very successful initially, so he started writing stories again while waiting for patients. He wrote 21 novels and more than 150 short stories. He also published poems, articles, memoirs and plays on various subjects. His most well-known works are the novels and stories with Sherlock Holmes and the fantasy novel The Lost World, which were made into successful films. 3
