Henry Buxton Forman fue un bibliógrafo y librero de viejo de la era victoriana, cuya reputación literaria se basa en sus bibliografías de poetas significativos. Sin embargo, su nombre está inextricablemente ligado a la exposición de una conspiración de falsificación a gran escala de primeras ediciones.

El trabajo de Forman sirve así como una advertencia sobre la fragilidad del mercado literario y la importancia de la procedencia.
