He is best known for his stories about the ingenious detective, Sherlock Holmes, and his sidekick Dr. Watson. Doyle was educated as a physician and began writing stories while studying medicine. He published his first novel, A Study in Scarlet, in 1887. He followed that with three more novels and more than fifty short stories about Sherlock Holmes. His work was a milestone in crime fiction. Doyle also produced a number of other fantasy and science fiction stories. He credited his former university teacher, Joseph Bell, as the inspiration for Holmes.
