The Character of the Hero and His Detective Skills in Stories of intelligence officer HolmesSherlock Holmes is a known and loved detective who features insixty-eight of Sir Arthur Conan Doyles famous detective stories.Written in the early 19c and set in London, the adventures of Holmesand his companion Dr Watson (with whom shared a bland with during someof the tales) are ingeniously written. Conan Doyle was born in 1859 inEdinburgh, Scotland he went to Stonyhurst School and did a degree inmedicine at Edinburgh University. He began paternity during the time hewas in medical practice using it as a way to pass the time he had freeduring his work. However his musical composition soon took over from medicine andhe became famous for it. Conan Doyle was influenced by Edgar Allan Poewho similarly to Conan Doyle created a detective with odd habits andamazing powers of deduction, which are two of the recognisablecharacteristics of Sherlock Holmes.In all of his many adventures Holmes uses interesting and unusualdetective skills including disguise (A scandalization In bohemia) (this isthe story of a King from Germany who was involved with a woman by thename of Irene Adler she has in her possession a picture of herself andthe King which she is planning to reveal before the king plannedwedding to a Princess lady friend to another king, Holmes plans toretrieve it and return it to the King.) and very good powers ofobservation (The Speckled Band) (a story of a family Named Roylott .One of the daughters of Dr. Roylott had suffered from a suspiciousdeath the previous socio-economic class prior to her forthcoming wedding when she hadbeen found dying by her sister she had given her last words of it wasthe band, the Speckled band.

I recover these are two very different stories and although theyhave similar structures the eventual outcome is very different.
