An Entirely New Country

Arthur Conan Doyle, Undershaw and the Resurrection of Sherlock Holmes

By: Alistair Duncan

Narrated by: J.T. McDaniel

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.

Strange Activities

Arthur Conan Doyle during the time that he was in residents at Undershaw. The design and building of it, living in it was something he avoided as time went on; with more important places to be, while his first wife was waiting to die there.

Informative

Interesting biographical book about ACD and his work and other pursuits while living at his home Undershaw. The narration was excellent.
