Thomas Mein Reid (1818-1883) has been well known to Russian readers for at least a century and a half. At home, in England, interest in him faded for a while, but has flared up with renewed vigor in the 21st century, not least thanks to his Russian translations: he is favorably mentioned by Chekhov, Nobel Prize winner Czeslaw Milosz learned Russian from our editions of Mein Reid, and the young Vladimir Nabokov translated him himself, in verse. It is also important that at the beginning of his creative journey, Mein Reid had a decisive influence on the work of A. Conan Doyle.
