Bertram Fletcher Robinson was an English sportsman, journalist, author and Liberal Unionist Party campaigner. Between 1893 and 1907, he wrote nearly three hundred items, including a series of short stories that feature a detective called "Addington Peace". However, Robinson is perhaps best remembered for his literary collaborations with his friends Arthur Conan Doyle and P. G. Wodehouse. [Wikipedia] Fletcher Robinson is today justly celebrated by Sherlockians for his role in the creation of *The Hound of the Baskervilles*. He told his friend Conan Doyle of the legends of ghostly hounds. *The Hound of the Baskervilles* is dedicated to Robinson who died in 1907, aged only 36. [Crime Reads]
