The Man from Archangel and Other Tales of Adventure (1925) is a collection of short stories about the First World War, especially the second battle of Ypres and the battle of Loos, which were among the most tragic events of the war. The Man From Archangel concerns a love triangle: a Russian girl is saved in from shipwreck by an attorney turned scholar, the narrator of the story.
The Man From Archangel, Arthur Conan Doyle branches out from the detective stories that made him famous and delves into the genre of action-adventure and, interestingly enough, a series of stories that focus on first-hand accounts of life as a physician. No matter what the subject may be, Conan Doyle is a master story-spinner, and the gripping tales in this volume attest to his unparalleled narrative skill.

This early work by Arthur Conan Doyle was originally published in 1925 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1859. It was between 1876 and 1881, while studying medicine at the University of Edinburgh, that he began writing short stories, and his first piece was published in Chambers's Edinburgh Journal before he was 20. In 1887, Conan Doyle's first significant work, A Study in Scarlet, appeared in Beeton's Christmas Annual. It featured the first appearance of detective Sherlock Holmes, the protagonist who was to eventually make Conan Doyle's reputation. A prolific writer, Conan Doyle continued to produce a range of fictional works over the following years. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
