Although he is best known to the public as the author of the
Sherlock Holmes stories and other pioneering works of detective fiction,
Arthur Conan Doyle successfully contributed to other genres, such as
historical fiction, as demonstrated by this collection he compiled in
1922. These vivid and enthralling stories – which take the reader to Roman Britain, ancient Carthage, Mecca at the time of the Prophet Muhammad and many other evocative settings – showcase the author's knack for bringing to life diverse times and places and crafting enduring narratives. Tales of Long Ago is an entertaining and invaluable read for all those interested in this lesser-known facet of Conan Doyle's writing. |
