Arthur Conan Doyle a mené une existence particulièrement riche et passionnante, le type de vie qu'on attribue à un véritable excentrique, ce qu'il n'était pas. Il était toutefois plein de ressources, courageux, intelligent, dévoué et ouvert d'esprit. De nombreuses biographies ont été écrites et vous pensez peut-être que les moindres aspects de sa vie ont été couverts. Il semble pourtant que de nouvelles informations soient sans cesse mises à jour, comme le prouve cet ouvrage. Le nom Arthur Conan Doyle a longtemps été éclipsé par l'une de ses plus célèbres créations, Sherlock Holmes. Lorsque vous évoquez Dartmoor, probablement neuf personnes interrogées sur dix pensent à la plus grande aventure de Sherlock Holmes, Le Chien des Baskerville, mais d'une façon générale, les liens de Conan Doyle avec Dartmoor et le comté du Devon dépassent largement cette ¿uvre. Le premier cabinet dans lequel il travaille après avoir obtenu son diplôme de médecin se trouve à Plymouth. Il s'agit assurément d'un engagement de courte durée mais le docteur Conan Doyle retourne dans le comté à de nombreuses occasions. De nature active, il effectue toujours ces visites dans un objectif qui vont au-delà du simple repos, comme vous pourrez le constater. La vie de deux autres hommes est inextricablement liée aux expériences de Conan Doyle dans le Devon. George Turnavine Budd, qui fait de lui son associé dans le cabinet de Plymouth, et Bertram Fletcher Robinson, qui joue un rôle essentiel dans la conception et l'ébauche de Le Chien des Baskerville. Le présent ouvrage se penche de façon approfondie sur ces contributions. Des guides pour romantiques souhaitant suivre la piste de Sherlock Holmes existent déjà. Je me réjouis d'accueillir ce livre qui se concentre plutôt sur le créateur du détective, et qui plus est rédigé conjointement par un scientifique et un spécialiste de Conan Doyle.Roger Johnson,Éditeur: The Sherlock Holmes Journal
