Book ID/图书代码： 12346613B66894
English Summary/英文概要： London. 1910. A procession of well-attired gentlemen and ladies are clearly out of place among the stalls and pushcar ts of the Whitechapel District. As the group makes its way through the crowded streets, the tour guide stops now and then to point out various places where the mutilated bodies of the women had been found.
Although the murders occurred twenty-two years prior, the man leading the group seems to know ever y detail and aspect of each slaying. Of those things he does not know, he offers freely his own insightful conjecture. This is, however, no average tour of brutal acts. It is a close look at infamous serial killer Jack the Ripper’s trail of blood. And the man leading the group is none other than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle—famous creator of fictional character Sherlock Holmes, the world’s greatest detective. In The Strange Case of Dr. Doyle, we learn what draws one famous Englishman to another in ways that are as fascinating as they are shocking.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle actually led a tour group to the sites of the Whitechapel Murders in the year 1910. While we do not have an existing description of that tour, authors Daniel Friedman, MD, and Eugene Friedman, MD, have meticulously pieced together Doyle’s own words to create a riveting account of his publicly stated beliefs on each of these horrific murders. As Doyle takes the group on his tour, the reader learns about the victims and the way each died. The authors have also included new pieces of evidence to better understand the murderer known to history only as Jack the Ripper.
Interspersed throughout the tour is the Friedmans’ unique and well-researched account of the life of the young Conan Doyle, which was shrouded in more mystery than any of his own works of fiction. The authors have uncovered facts about which few, if any, Doyle biographers have ever been aware. Doyle was able to reinvent himself so fully through his own writings that few recognized the more disturbing elements that were cut out of his own life stor y. What these two authors have uncovered in their investigation of Jack the Ripper and Sir Ar thur will no doubt spark passion and debate among Sherlockians for years to come . The Strange Case of Dr. Doyle proves once again that truth—elementar y as it may be—is always stranger than fiction.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 1910的伦敦。由精心打扮的女士和先生们组成的队伍出现在显然不合时宜的白教堂区沿街叫卖的摊位边。当队伍试图穿过拥挤的街道，导游突然停下了， 然后指出妇女残缺不全的尸体被发现的各种地方。
虽然谋杀案发生在22年前，这个带领团队的男人似乎知道杀害的每一个细节和环节。他并不知道这些事情，只是对历史进行了自由有见地的猜想。然而，这是一场残酷的不平凡之旅。这是对臭名昭著的连环杀手开膛手杰克留下的血迹的近距离观察。这个导游不是别人，正是阿瑟•柯南道尔先生笔下著名的虚构人物福尔摩斯，世界上最伟大侦探的创造者。在《道尔博士的奇怪事例》中，我们了解到是什么刻画了一个如此迷人，令人震惊的英国男人。
其实柯南道尔先生曾在1910年带领旅行团来过白教堂谋杀案现场。虽然我们没有现有的对那场旅行的描述，但作者丹尼尔•弗里德曼博士和尤金•弗里德曼精心拼凑了道尔自己曾对这些可怕的谋杀案公开表态过的话语来创造一个引人入胜的解释。跟随道尔的旅行团队，读者了解了受害者以及每个人死亡的方式。此外，作者也找到了新的证明来更好的了解历史称为开膛手杰克的凶手。
整个旅途中穿插着弗里德曼对年轻的柯南道尔的生活的独特和精心的解释，这比他虚构的故事更加神秘。作者发现了道尔的传记作者曾经察觉到的一点点事实。道尔能够通过自己的作品完全地重塑自己，很少有人意识到一些更令人不安的元素被排除在了他自己的人生故事中。两位作者在他们对开膛手杰克和道尔的调查中的发现毫无疑问，将引发这几年对福尔摩斯的激情和争论。《道尔博士的奇怪事例》再一次证明了事实——基本不可能——总是比小说更离奇。(LNL)
