Harry Buxton Forman
Henry "Harry" Buxton Forman CB (11 July 1842 – 15 June 1917) was a Victorian-era bibliographer and antiquarian bookseller whose literary reputation is based on his bibliographies of Percy Shelley and John Keats. In 1934 he was revealed to have been in a conspiracy with Thomas James Wise (1859–1937) to purvey large quantities of forged first editions of Georgian and Victorian authors.
==Early life==
Henry Buxton Forman was born in Camberwell, south London on 11 July 1842, the third son of George Ellery Forman (born Plymouth in 1800, died London in 1869), a retired Royal Naval surgeon and his Sussex born wife Maria Courthorpe. At the age of ten months his family moved to Teignmouth in Devon and he was educated at a Royal Naval School in New Cross where Edmund Gosse was a contemporary and lifelong acquaintance although not an intimate. Whilst at school he adapted the sobriquet Harry by which he was afterwards known. He returned to London in 1860 and lived with his brothers〔His older brother Alfred William Forman, later a published poet was the first person to translate into English the librettos of several Richard Wagner's operas including ''Der Ring des Nibelungen''(1877), ''Tristan und Isolde'' (1891), ''Parsifal'' (1899), and Tannhäuser (1919). He married the actress Alma Murray in 1876〕 in Stockwell in south London after joining the Post Office at 18 years of age.
