Richard Hugh Grove (b 1955, Cambridge, UK) is a British historian, and one of the contemporary founders of environmental history as an academic field. His prizewinning book, ''Green Imperialism: Colonial Expansion, Tropical Island Edens and the Origins of Environmentalism 1600–1860'' (1995), is widely praised for its exhaustive account of colonial environmental impacts and environmental thinking back to the 17th century. == Background ==
Grove is the son of Cambridge climatologists Alfred Thomas Grove and Jean Mary Grove, née Clark, and is married to historian Vinita Damodaran of University of Sussex. His interdisciplinary training includes a BA in Geography from Oxford University (1979), MSc in Conservation biology from University College London (1980) and a PhD in History from the University of Cambridge (1988).〔Grove, Richard Hugh. 1988.

In 2006, Grove suffered a very serious car accident in Cooma, Australia, on his way back from the Manning Clark property "Ness" on the far south coast of New South Wales, and has been severely incapacitated since that time.
