He was majorly a science fiction writer, having several American Sci-Fi novels to his credit. Out of all his creations, his 1965 novel Dune and its five sequels have been the most renowned ones, which became the hands-down winners of the bestselling sci-fi novels of all times.

In my opinion, you should read the novel mostly because of Frank Herbert's inventive world building and environment. The story's political, theological, and philosophical concerns are, in many ways, significantly more important than the science fiction elements. Despite being a work of science fiction, the major focus should not be on the science and technologies covered in the book. Quotes Picked For You & The Most Interesting Parts!!

The Adventure of the Copper Beeches Why Should I Recommend This Book To You? I would recommend this book to you because here, the author describes Sherlock’s character as a clever intelligent, best observer and the emotional or understanding person, which is the best part to read. He also makes him a darker character to show his cocaine addiction, but the Sherlock done his professional work with effectiveness.

In addition, Dr. Watson who is the author of book and told the all stories to reader is the friend of Sherlock.

Details of the Author of the 3rd Book 'Is dying hard, Daddy?' 'No, I think it's pretty easy, Nick. It all depends.‘ Ernest Miller Hemingway, better known as Ernest Hemingway, was born on 21 July 1899 in Oak Park, Illinois, Chicago. He was a renowned short-story writer, novelist and journalist, who has penned six collections of short stories, two non-fictitious works and seven novels. His contribution to the American English Literature is unfathomable. He has seen both the World Wars, and these have only majorly reflected in his writing styles. In fact, even in his choice of scenarios and backdrops of the short stories, once can predominantly find the glimpses as well as the turbulences of the World Wars, which affected him deeply. Name of the Short Story: Indian Camp https://archive.org/stream/IndianCampErnestHemingway_661/IndianCampByErnestHemingway_djvu.txt Author: Ernest Hemingway Summary of the Short Story The short story “Indian Camp” is set in the backdrop of Indian camp, which were common in those days in the early 1900s, when Native Americans had to live offshore from the general population, in the small camps, where living standards were quite low and the basic needs to live lives securely were lacking majorly. The story begins with Dr. Adams being called to assist an American Indian woman who has been in excruciating labor for two days one night. The physician brings his little son, Nick, and George, his sibling, to the American Indian camp across a lake in northern Michigan. In order to deliver the baby, the doctor there uses a fishing knife, catgut, and a makeshift caesarean with no anesthesia. After the horrible experience, he learns that the woman's husband, who was in the bunk above hers, silently slit his throat. This affects the little boy Nick, to such an extent that his last question at the end of the story is for understanding the difficulties, which might come with the act of dying. Why Should I Recommend This Short Story To You? Out of all the short stories, which Hemingway wrote, I have chosen the short story named “Indian Camp”, because it is the one, which has touched me the most. Being a very emotional person, both life and death mean a lot to me; and the short story “Indian Camp” has just depicted that, with both life and death taking place in the same backdrop. The amalgamation of the baby taking birth in the Indian camp with the death of its father right on the upper bunk has been spine-chilling yet evoking enough to draw a tear or two from the eyes of the reader. Nevertheless, this short story would also be liked by any practical person, for whom life and death are mere processes. Quotes Picked For You & The Most Interesting Parts!! The most interesting part of this short story, as I have already illustrated before, is the fact that the story very beautifully depicts the coexistence of both life and death, yet without making the story a horrendous explanation of the same. It might sound too much practical. Yet this is important, for many especially children to accept that both life and death are processes, which take place in their due time. Hence, ending one’s life on their own is not a solution to any problem. Also, this tale serves as an excellent illustration of what is known as an "initiation story," a brief narrative in which the protagonist encounters a concept, ritual, experience, or knowledge for the first time. Nick Adams, a young man who resembles Hemingway himself, is the primary character in most of the initiation stories that Hemingway authored, often known as "rite of passage" stories.
