About this deal

I very much feared that Conan Doyle, who in photographs looks like the very personification of Victorian chauvinism, would stoop to patronising her militant feminist views, maybe even use the story to teach her a lesson, but to his credit he did nothing of the sort. Compulsory Vaccination – The Evening Mail – The Arthur Conan Doyle Encyclopedia". www.arthur-conan-doyle.com. Doyle is often referred to as "Sir Arthur Conan Doyle" or "Conan Doyle", implying that "Conan" is part of a compound surname rather than a middle name. His baptism entry in the register of St Mary's Cathedral, Edinburgh, gives "Arthur Ignatius Conan" as his given names and "Doyle" as his surname. It also names Michael Conan as his godfather. [1] The catalogues of the British Library and the Library of Congress treat "Doyle" alone as his surname. [2]

In particular, according to some, [89] he favoured Christian Spiritualism and encouraged the Spiritualists' National Union to accept an eighth precept – that of following the teachings and example of Jesus of Nazareth. He was a member of the renowned supernaturalist organisation The Ghost Club. [90] Doyle with his family in New York City, 1922

Between 1888 and 1906, Doyle wrote seven historical novels, which he and many critics regarded as his best work. [40] He also wrote nine other novels, and—later in his career (1912–29)—five narratives (two of novel length) featuring the irascible scientist Professor Challenger. The Challenger stories include his best-known work after the Holmes oeuvre, The Lost World. His historical novels include The White Company and its prequel Sir Nigel, set in the Middle Ages. He was a prolific author of short stories, including two collections set in Napoleonic times and featuring the French character Brigadier Gerard.

While living in Switzerland, Doyle became interested in skiing, which was relatively unknown in Switzerland at the time. He wrote an article, "An Alpine Pass on 'Ski '" for the December 1894 issue of The Strand Magazine, [61] in which he described his experiences with skiing and the beautiful alpine scenery that could be seen in the process. The article popularised the activity and began the long association between Switzerland and skiing.

Nothing happens at all, which is fine, but not really what I expect from an Arthur Conan Doyle novel. The central theme of the book is a clash between a Suffragette main character and the conservative families that move in around her. Of course, given the time period that was never really going to work out, and to be fair the characters all part as friends, but I did have some higher hopes! I really felt like Arthur Conan Doyle might be able to be a little bit feminist and progressive. Sadly it doesn't work out quite that way. Three quotes: a b "No. 27494".
