Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) graduated in medicine at Edinburgh University in 1881. At the age of 26, he invented Sherlock Holmes -- his first novel, A Study in Scarlet (1887), featured the now world-famous detective. Several titles later, he "killed off" Holmes by reporting his death in "The Final Problem" (1893), but the detective was brought back to life in The Hound of the Baskervilles (1901). As well as his Holmes stories, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, a man of wideranging interests, was the...
