Sherlock Holmes is a fictional detective of the late 19th and early 20th

centuries, who first appeared in publication in 1887. He is the

creation of Scottish born author and physician Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. A

brilliant London-based detective, Holmes is famous for his intellectual

prowess, and is renowned for his skillful use of deductive reasoning

(somewhat mistakenly - see inductive reasoning) and astute observation

to solve difficult cases. He is arguably the most famous fictional

detective ever created, and is one of the best known and most

universally recognizable literary characters in any genre.

Conan

Doyle wrote four novels and fifty-six short stories that featured

Holmes. All but four stories were narrated by Holmes' friend and

biographer, Dr. John H. Watson, two having been narrated by Holmes

himself, and two others written in the third person. The first two

stories, short novels, appeared in Beeton's Christmas Annual for 1887

and Lippincott's Monthly Magazine in 1890. The character grew

tremendously in popularity with the beginning of the first series of

short stories in The Strand Magazine in 1891; further series of short

stories and two serialized novels appeared almost right up to Conan

Doyle's death in 1930. The stories cover a period from around 1878 up to

1903, with a final case in 1914.
