About the book

Ford Madox Ford's literary relations with Joseph Conrad are closely and systematically examined in this volume, in order to determine the nature of the various kinds of help Ford claimed to have given his famous friend and collaborator. When Joseph Conrad died in 1924, Ford Madox Ford immediately published a memoir of his involvement with Conrad at which Conrad's widow took offense. The ensuing "controversy" left Ford with a lasting reputation for "unreliability" which Morey examines in detail, uncovering evidence that substantiates most of Ford's claims. Morey's judicious assessment of the literary friendship and interdependence between two remarkable writers is a much-needed addition to studies of Conrad and Ford.
