Default No Skiing in Switzerland?

All,

It seems odd to think of a time when people didn't ski in Switzerland.
However, when Arthur Conan Doyle arrived in Switzerland in 1893 that was
exactly the situation. Learn how the man who wrote the Sherlock Holmes novels
also helped to popularize skiing in Switzerland -

There was a lady at Santarem--but my lips are sealed. It is the part of a
gallant man to say nothing, though he may indicate that he could say a great
deal. - The Crime of The Brigadier by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
