Autorenporträt

Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a prolific writer born in Scotland who started out as a medical doctor. While at the University of Edinburgh, he augmented his income by writing stories. His first Sherlock Holmes tale was published in 1887, introducing one of literature's best-loved detectives. Doyle has also written many works of history and science fiction, plus plays and poetry. New Zealand native Harry Rountree (1878-1950) emigrated to England where he made his fortune as an illustrator of books and magazines such as Little Folks and Punch.
