The Captain of the Polestar (and Other Tales) is a collection of short stories by Scottish writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle first published in 1883. 'The Captain of the Pole-Star' is one of the best examples of Conan Doyle's weird fiction. This is a superb collection of strange mystery tales that are all independent, sometimes involving ship voyages, shipwrecks, amnesia, lost love, grand thefts, comedy, and fairy tales.
