Description

A biography of Arthur Conan Doyle, from his boyhood in Edinburgh, through his career as a doctor and writer not only of detective stories, but also historical fiction, spiritualism, war and jingoistic poetry. The contrasts between his glorification of manliness and his belief in fairies and support of women's suffrage are examined.
