This blog, as part of an assignment for my Contemporary Communications class, will serve as an additional resource where people can research the top of Sherlock Holmes throughout the ages. This blog will hopefully allow others to gain insight on what really went into the writing of the stories, the life of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and so on. Please enjoy :)
