Ford Madox Ford (17 December 1873 – 26 June 1939), born Ford Hermann Hueffer was an English novelist, poet, critic and editor whose journals, The English Review and The Transatlantic Review, were instrumental in the development of early 20th-century English literature. He is now remembered best for his publications "The Good Soldier" (1915), the Parade's End tetralogy (1924–28) and The Fifth Queen trilogy (1906–08). "The Good Soldier" is frequently included among the great literature of the 20th century, including the Modern Library 100 Best Novels in The Observer's "100 Greatest Novels of All Time", and The Guardian's "1000 novels everyone must read".
