I know we love to talk about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s weird spiritualism and his love-hate relationship with Houdini, but I feel like we’re sleeping on several other aspects of his character here
Like, he personally Sherlocked two dudes out of prison? He was a whaler? He was a doctor and a field surgeon. Dude had a lot going on. Also I knew he was knighted, but I never thought to ask WHY. Low key thought the crown just REALLY liked his books.
