Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 
Last Galley; Impressions and Tales [EPUB ebook] 

Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle (22 May 1859 – 7 July 1930) was a Scottish writer and physician, most noted for his fictional stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, which are generally considered milestones in the field of crime fiction. "The Last Galley (and Other Stories)" is a collection of eighteen short stories by the great Victorian writer, a fascinating insight into Conan Doyle’s prolific interests – stories like "The Coming of the Huns" and "The Last of the Legions" take you way back in time to the days when the Romans and their historical foes ruled the earth.
