This vivid biography, written by John Dickson Carr, a giant in the field of mystery fiction, benefits from his full access to the archives of the eminent Sir Arthur Conan Doyle--to his notebooks, diaries, press clippings, and voluminous correspondence. Like his creation Sherlock Holmes, Doyle had "a horror of destroying documents," and until his death in 1930, they accumulated to vast amount throughout his house at Windlesham. They provide many of the words incorporated by Carr in this lively portrayal of Doyle's forays into politics, his infatuation with spiritualism, his literary ambitions, and dinner-table conversations with friends like H. G. Wells and King Edward VII. Carr, then, in a sense collaborates with his subject to unfold a colorful narrative that takes Doyle from his school days at Stonyhurst to Edinburgh University and a medical practice at Southsea, where he conceived the idea of wedding scientific study to criminal investigation in the fictive person of Sherlock Holmes. It also explores the private tragedy of Doyle's first marriage and long-delayed second as it follows him into the arena of public activity, propaganda, and literary output that would win him not only celebrity but also knighthood. 8 pages of black-and-white photographs are featured.

Love the concept, but too loose and gets everywhere
Love the fact that it's made in America, the packaging is nice, and the ingredients are good. With that being said, the product itself isn't set well. You need to be able to put it on without so much going on your lips. Maybe more beeswax...not sure but something to make it go on smooth not gritty and not get all over the place. I tried putting it in the fridge to harden it up with no luck.

Not for me
For me… it was way too greasy,spread on to my face around mouth. But worst of all it gave my lips a slight allergic reaction. I’m a fan of beef tallow I use it frequently but my normal tallow was not in stock so I tried this one. It wasn’t for me unfortunately.
