About the Author

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote A Study in Scarlet when he was 30. His medical practice at that time was not providing enough income and he turned his hand to fiction to supplement his income. He based his character of Sherlock Holmes on his former professor at the University of Edinburgh, Joseph Bell.
