Founder

Edward Augustus Arnold was born in Truro on 15 July 1857. His grandfather was Thomas Arnold and his uncle Matthew Arnold. He was educated at Eton and Hertford College, Oxford.

From 1883 he worked as a magazine editor for the firm of Richard Bentley and from 1887 edited Murray's Magazine for the John Murray publishing house.[5]

He set up his own publishing business in London's Covent Garden in January 1890.[6] Trading under his own name and later as Edward Arnold & Co., he specialized in educational books, exploration, mountaineering, Egyptology, and medical and scientific texts.[5] He published most of E. M. Forster's major works.

He died at Budleigh Salterton on 6 November 1942.[7]
