The Man Who Created Sherlock Holmes : The Life And Times Of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Attribution
Andrew Lycett
Publication Details
Book, 1st Free Press hardcover ed, Free Press, 2007
Links
Description
Though Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s name is recognized the world over, for decades the man himself has been overshadowed by his better understood creation, Sherlock Holmes, who has become one of literature’s most enduring characters. The first biographer to gain access to Conan Doyle’s newly released personal archive — which includes correspondence, diaries, original manuscripts and more — Lycett combines assiduous research with penetrating insight to offer the most comprehensive, lucid and sympathetic portrait yet of Conan Doyle’s personal journey from student to doctor, from world-famous author to ardent spiritualist.

Description
This remarkable annotated collection of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s previously unpublished private correspondence offers unique insight into one of the world’s most popular authors. As the public clamored endlessly for Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle explored other pursuits: He was a doctor during the Boer War, a World War I correspondent, and the foremost spokesman for Spiritualism. Jon Lellenberg is the U.S. agent for the Conan Doyle estate and author of The Quest for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Arthur Conan Doyle: A Life in Letters will be a must-have collection for readers interested in the author, Sherlock Holmes, and the Victorian era. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)

The Secret Marriage Of Sherlock Holmes, And Other Eccentric Readings

Attribution
Michael Atkinson
Publication Details
Book, University of Michigan Press, 1996
Description
The Secret Marriage of Sherlock Holmes is about reading, a process that we take for granted. But Sherlock Holmes, the cultural icon to whose exploits Michael Atkinson gives new readings, became famous by taking nothing for granted. Holmes’s adventures can be read in new ways, including ways that he himself would have found startling, but which can give contemporary readers satisfaction. Just as Holmes uses treatises on tobacco ash and tattoos to give fresh readings to puzzling facts, Atkinson employs widely different critical strategies to unravel the mysteries of reading itself.
