In the story Adventures of the Cardboard Box, I chose Dr. John H. Watson to do a character analysis. Dr. Watson provides a foil and minor character to compare to his partner Holmes.

Watson's narration through out the series is constantly building up Holmes's glamor at the expense of his own. Dr. Watson provides a foil for Holmes’ character. Watson serves as the important function of a catalyst for Holmes’s
