Yea, yea. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is the guy who wrote Sherlock Holmes. But
like many working writers of the late 19th / early 20th centuries, he wrote
in a number of different fields. He wrote a number of works in the realms
of adventure tales, historical romances and science fiction. His best
overtly SF is the Professor Challenger stories. "The Lost World", while
not wonderfully written, tells the story of an egocentric scientist who
discovers a lost plateau in South America where neanderthals and dinosaurs
live side by side. Rather fun if you have a taste for the adventure
stories of the era.
