Sherlock Holmes is a fictional London-based “consulting detective” created by Scottish author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. You might not know this but Sherlock Holmes was inspired by Dr. Joseph Bell because Bell, like Sherlock Holmes, was well-known for drawing large conclusions from the smallest observations. They are both famous for astute logical reasoning, his gift to adopt disguise, and his use of forensic science skills to solve difficult cases.

Holmes was featured in four full-length novels such as “A Study in Scarlet”, “The Sign of the Four”, “The Hound of the Baskervilles”, and “The Valley of Fear”. There are also 56 short stories, collected together in the anthologies called “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes”, “The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes”, “The Return of Sherlock Holmes”, “His Last Bow” and “The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes”.

One of the most important fictional characters in the novel is Dr. John H. Watson, M.D or simply Dr. Watson. He’s Sherlock Holmes’s friend and sometime flatmate. He is also the assistant of Holmes and the first person narrator of all but four stories in the Sherlock Holmes canon. Dr. Watson lives with Holmes for some time before his marriage with Mary Morstan and they shared the majority of their professional years together.
