The creation of Sherlock Holmes in 1887 marked a significant milestone in crime fiction, with the character featuring in four novels and fifty-six short stories alongside Dr. Watson. Arthur Conan Doyle, a prolific writer, also explored fantasy and science fiction through Professor Challenger and humor with Brigadier Gerard. His diverse body of work includes plays, romances, poetry, and historical novels. Notably, the short story "J. Habakuk Jephson's Statement" contributed to the intrigue surrounding the mystery of the Mary Celeste.
