Sherlock Holmes is a fictional detective character, the main character of the books of the English writer Arthur Conan Doyle. In the story of Sherlock Holmes, as a rule, it comes from the name of his friend and companion - Dr. John Watson, but there are exceptions, for example, in the story "The Lion's Man" Sherlock Holm himself is a story. Detective conducts his investigations using logic and method of deduction.
Sherlock Holmes became known as a doctor and professor at Edinburgh University, Joseph Bell, whose assistant was Arthur Conan Doyle. Due to his outstanding observation and ability to draw conclusions, Bell could easily determine the occupation of the patient, from where he or some details of his life. These features, as well as the similar appearance Conan Doyle also gave his character.
In general, Sherlock Holmes appears in 56 stories and 4 stories by Arthur Conan Doyle. In most cases, the story is based on the name of Holmes - Dr. Watson's companion (in the tradition of Russian-language editions, and hence in Ukrainian-language translations, it is customary to call the companion Holmes Watson).
The first book about the famous detective, the novel The Study in Scarlet Tones, written by Arthur Conan Doyle in 1887. The latest collection, The Archive of Sherlock Holmes, published in 1927.
Conan Doyle himself considered the story of Holmes "easy to read." In addition, he was annoyed by the fact that readers prefer the works of Holmes, while Conan Doyle considered himself, above all, the great author of the historical novel.
In the end, Sir Arthur decided to stop the investigator's story, removing the popular literary character in a battle with Professor Moriarty (the godfather of the English Mafia, as they would say now) in the Reichenbach Waterfall.
