ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Arthur Conan Doyle was born the third of ten siblings on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh, Scotland. His father, Charles Altamont Doyle, was born in England of Irish descent, and his mother, born Mary Foley, was Irish. They were married in 1855.
Although he is now referred to as “Conan Doyle”, the origin of this compound surname (if that is how he meant it to be understood) is uncertain. His baptism record in the registry of St Mary’s Cathedral in Edinburgh gives ‘Arthur Ignatius Conan’ as his Christian name, and simply ‘Doyle’ as his surname. It also names Michael Conan as his godfather.
At the age of nine Conan Doyle was sent to the Roman Catholic Jesuit preparatory school, Hodder Place, Stonyhurst. He then went on to Stonyhurst College, leaving in 1875.
From 1876 to 1881 he studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh. This required that he provide periodic medical assistance in the towns of Aston (now a district of Birmingham) and Sheffield. While studying, Conan Doyle began writing short stories. His first published story appeared in “Chambers’s Edinburgh Journal” before he was 20. Following his graduation, he was employed as a ship’s doctor on the SS Mayumba during a voyage to the West African coast. He completed his doctorate on the subject of tabes dorsalis in 1885.
In 1885 Conan Doyle married Louisa (or Louise) Hawkins, known as “Touie”. She suffered from tuberculosis and died on 4 July 1906. The following year he married Jean Elizabeth Leckie, whom he had first met and fallen in love with in 1897. Due to his sense of loyalty he had maintained a purely platonic relationship with Jean while his first wife was alive. Jean died in London on 27 June 1940.
Conan Doyle fathered five children. Two with his first wife—Mary Louise (28 January 1889 – 12 June 1976), and Arthur Alleyne Kingsley, known as Kingsley (15 November 1892 – 28 October 1918). With his second wife he had three children—Denis Percy Stewart (17 March 1909 – 9 March 1955), second husband in 1936 of Georgian Princess Nina Mdivani (circa 1910 – 19 February 1987; former sister-in-law of Barbara Hutton); Adrian Malcolm (19 November 1910–3 June 1970) and Jean Lena Annette (21 December 1912–18 November 1997).
Conan Doyle was found clutching his chest in the hall of Windlesham, his house in Crowborough, East Sussex, on 7 July 1930. He had died of a heart attack at age 71. His last words were directed toward his wife: “You are wonderful.” The epitaph on his gravestone in the churchyard at Minstead in the New Forest, Hampshire, reads:

ABOUT THE READER
Stephen John Fry was born in 24 August 1957 and is an English actor, screenwriter, author, playwright, journalist, poet, comedian, television and radio presenter and film director.He went to numerous schools before he arrived at Queens’ College, Cambridge. At Cambridge he met Hugh Laurie, so beginning an enduring creative partnership. He also trod the boards with the likes of Emma Thompson and Tony Slattery in the Footlights, performing in over 30 plays and even finding time to write his own – “Latin!” – which toured the country and won an award.Pleasingly for an actor, critical acclaim was followed by popular appeal with the move to television. Memorable outings for the Fry comic juggernaut included Blackadder, A Bit of Fry & Laurie and Jeeves and Wooster. Add to this a few big screen outings such as Wilde, Gosford Park, Peter’s Friends and (errm) Spiceworld and you’ve got the makings of a well rounded career.“The Liar” fired the first fusillade as an original novelist. Followed by “Paperweight”, “The Hippopotamus” and “Making History”, Stephen’s autobiography “Moab is My Washpot” hit the shelves in 1997, the same year as what many people assumed to be his quasi-autobiography, “Wilde”. His latest work “The Stars’ Tennis Balls” was published in 2000. Stephen’s next book “A Peruvian Diary”, details with his endeavours to save the ‘spectacled bear’ from extinction. Stephen also is also an outstanding narrator of audiobooks including the Harry Potter Collection.
