Ford Madox Ford (born Joseph Leopold Ford) Hermann Madox Hueffer was an English author, poet, critic, and editor who lived from December 17, 1873, to June 26, 1939. His journals, The English Review and The Transatlantic Review, were important to the growth of English and American writing in the early 20th century. Ford's books that people remember are The Good Soldier (1915), the Parade's End tetralogy (1924-1928), and The Fifth Queen trio (1906-1908). The Modern Library's 100 Best Novels, The Observer's "100 Greatest Novels of All Time," and The Guardian's "1000 novels everyone must read" all list The Good Soldier as one of the best books written in the 20th century. The eldest of three children, Ford was born in Wimbledon, Surrey, to Catherine Madox Brown and Francis Hueffer. His brother was Oliver Madox Hueffer, and his sister was Juliet Hueffer, who married David Soskice and had a son named Frank Soskice. Ford's father was German and wrote about music for The Times. His mother was English. Johann Hermann Hüffer, his paternal grandfather, was the first person to print Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, a Westphalian poet and author. His name comes from the name of his maternal grandfather, the Pre-Raphaelite painter Ford Madox Brown. He would later write a history of this artist.
