Bøker av Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

In The Lost World, Edward D. Malone, a newspaper reporter for The Daily Gazette, has been assigned to write an article on the irascible Professor George Edward Challenger who has recently returned from South America with unbelievable accounts of prehistoric life on a remote, uncharted plateau deep in the heart of the Amazon. The scientific community in London believes that Challenger is a fraud, so the professor plans a new expedition to establish the veracity of his claims. He asks for volunteers to accompany him, and Malone steps forward in hopes that the perilous journey will impress the woman he loves. They will also be joined by the wealthy adventurer Lord John Roxton and the sceptical Professor Summerlee, who hopes to prove that Challenger is in fact a charlatan. This classic tale by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, helped establish the genre of science fiction and has inspired, since its first publication in 1912, numerous stories, novels and films. THE LOST WORLD RE-IMAGINED: In this volume, the original and unabridged text of The Lost World is accompanied by sixty-five charming colour photographic illustrations featuring custom designed models built using only LEGO┬« brand minifigures and bricks.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a Scottish physician and writer. Although he wrote a number of series, such as his Professor Challenger stories, he is by far best known as the creator of Sherlock Holmes. In later life he gained notoriety for his belief in spiritualism and the Cottingley Fairies. "The Return of Sherlock Holmes" is the third anthology of Sherlock Holmes short stories and begins with Holmes' miraculous return after apparently dying with Professor Moriarty at Reichenbach Falls. In all, the anthology provides a full baker's dozen tales of Holmes' uncanny deductive powers as recounted by his loyal friend, Dr. Watson. This book is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for writing English developed in the mid-19th century at the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah).
