The Fifth Queen Crowned

The book showcases the early work of Ford Madox Ford, originally published in 1908. Ford, born into a family of artists and critics, was influenced by prominent Victorian figures. He founded the English Review, significantly shaping early modernist literature by publishing notable authors and debuting new talents. His most recognized achievement, the Parade's End tetralogy, was completed in the 1920s and adapted for television. Ford's literary contributions continued into the 1930s, alongside teaching literature until his passing in 1939.
