Ford Madox Ford ([December 17, 1873June 26, 1939) was an English novelist, poet, critic and Literary editor whose journals The English Review and The Transatlantic Review were instrumental in the development of early 20th-century English-language literature. He is now best remembered for The Good Soldier (1915) and the Parade's End tetralogy.

Born Ford Hermann Hueffer, he was Ford Madox Hueffer before he finally settled on the name Ford Madox Ford in honour of his grandfather, the Pre-Raphaelite painter Ford Madox Brown, whose biography he had written.

Ford's novels One of his most famous works is The Good Soldier (1915), a short novel set just before World War I which chronicles the tragedies of the lives of two "perfect couples" using intricate flashback (literary technique)s. In a "Dedicatory Letter to Stella Ford” that prefaces the novel, Ford reports that a friend pronounced The Good Soldier “the finest French novel in the English language!”

Ford also wrote the tetralogy Parade's End (1924-1928), set in England and on the Western Front in World War I, where he served as an officer in the Welch Regiment, a life vividly depicted in the novels.

Both The Good Soldier and Parade's End depict the confusion and despair attendant on a long undisturbed English aristocracy upon the arrival of the 20th century. Ford wrote dozens of novels as well as essays, poetry, memoir, and literary criticism, and collaborated with Joseph Conrad on two novels, The Inheritors (1901) and Romance (1903).

His novel Ladies Whose Bright Eyes (1911, extensively revised in 1935)Richard A. Cassell, "The Two Sorrells of Ford Madox Ford",in Modern Philology, Vol. 59, No. 2 (Nov., 1961), pp. 114-121 is, in a sense, the reverse of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court.

Ford's promotion of literature In 1908, he founded The English Review, in which he published Thomas Hardy, H.G. Wells, Joseph Conrad, Henry James, John Galsworthy, and William Butler Yeats and gave debuts to Wyndham Lewis, D.H. Lawrence, and Norman Douglas. In the 1920s, he founded The Transatlantic Review, a journal with great influence on modern literature. Staying with the artistic community in the Latin Quarter of Paris, France, he made friends with James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and Jean Rhys, all of whom he would publish (Ford is the model for the character Braddocks in Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises). In a later sojourn in the United States, he was involved with Allen Tate, Caroline Gordon, Katherine Anne Porter, and Robert Lowell, who was then a student. Despite his deep Victorian era roots, Ford was always a champion of new literature and literary experimentation.

Ford died in Deauville, France at the age of 66.
