Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
An autobiography of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle that reveals his achievements from and apart from the field of literature.

Lady Jean Conan Doyle's handwritten journal from the Doyle's family American and Canadian tour; entered in a B. W. Huebsch Year Book for 1914; red covers; inscribed "To Lady Conan Doyle from R.H.K. Coillane with a sprig of rosemary for remembrance".
The Man Who Created Sherlock Holmes
A portrait based on research into thousands of previously unavailable documents offers an alternative view of the prestigious author that depicts him as a contradictory man who embodied both upstanding and cruel tendencies, covering such topics as his dysfunctional parents, his extramarital affair, and his fanatical pursuit of scientific data. Reprint. 30,000 first printing.
In Bed With Sherlock Holmes
In Bed with Sherlock Holmes provides a witty and well-researched discussion of the sexual elements in the Sherlock Holmes stories, and in Conan Doyle’s own life. An expert commentator on all things Victorian, Doyle also reflects that period’s attitudes toward sex and erotic love. This commentary will make the Sherlock Holmes stories even more interesting and intriguing since Redmond uses published and unpublished articles, books and letters, as well as quotes from speeches given at meetings, to enliven the text and give a broad out-look to this unusual assessment of Doyle’s best known stories. Each chapter opens with one of the original Sidney Paget illustrations. Bibliography. Index.
The Redacted Sherlock Holmes - The Stage Plays
After the Redacted stories, the Redacted plays. Dramatisations of the works of Arthur Conan-Doyle, Shakespeare, Sophocles, and of Orlando Pearson. A Scandal in Nova Alba - Did Macbeth really kill King Duncan? Sherlock Holmes investigates. The Baron of Wimbledon - The story of a true German hero of the Nazi period. And a jaw-dropping revelation about the relationship between Sherlock Holmes and Irene Adler. A Case of Complex Identity - Arthur Conan Doyle's A Case of Identity. And its shocking sequel, The Camberwell Tyrant. The Bruce-Partington Diptych - Arthur Conan Doyle's espionage story, The Bruce-Partington Plans and its realpolitik inspired sequel, The Sleeper's Cache, featuring Mycroft as well as Sherlock Holmes. A Perilous Engagement - more Machiavellian machinations as we see that there can be a whitewash at Whitehall. Mr Devine's Original Problem - Sherlock Holmes is consulted by the most illustrious client of all. Pearson's plays are ideal for private reading, Zoom broadcasting or production on stage or in the classroom with forces small or large.
An Entirely New Country
The late 1890s saw Arthur Conan Doyle return to England after several years abroad. His new house, named Undershaw, represented a fresh start but it was also the beginning of a dramatic decade that saw him fall in love, stand for parliament, fight injustice and be awarded a knighthood. However, for his many admirers, the most important event of that decade was the resurrection of Sherlock Holmes - the character that he felt had cast a shadow over his life.
