This is straight from a wikipedia article: In A Study in Scarlet, Dr. Watson assesses Holmes's abilities thus: # Knowledge of Literature.-Nil. # Knowledge of Philosophy.-Nil. # Knowledge of Astronomy.-Nil. # Knowledge of Politics.-Feeble. # Knowledge of botany.-Variable. Well up in belladonna, opium and poisons generally. Knows nothing of practical gardening. # Knowledge of Geology.-Practical, but limited. Tells at a glance different soils from each other. After walks, has shown me splashes upon his trousers, and told me by their colour and consistence in what part of London he had received them. # Knowledge of Chemistry.-Profound. # Knowledge of Anatomy.-Accurate, but unsystematic. # Knowledge of Sensational Literature.-Immense. He appears to know every detail of every Horror perpetrated in the century. # Plays the violin well. # Is an expert singlestick player, boxer and swordsman. # Has a good practical knowledge of British law.

∙ 10y agoHe's a determined and intelligent character who loves solving crimes with his intimate and friendly companion 'Dr Watson'. He refused to associate himself with any investigation which did not tend towards the unusual, and even the fantastic. - he was a late riser - he's very observant - he always solved the crime (good reputation) - he's calm and uses humour - he cares for his friends...he's always described as being tall, stern, he most likely carries his stick he wears unusual formal clothes... hope this basic information helped a little!
