William Ernest Henley (1849–1903) was an influential British poet, critic, and editor of the late Victorian era in England. His contributions to English literature include his book 'Poems', a collection that showcases his mastery in the use of language and his ability to evoke powerful emotional responses. His own struggle with tuberculosis of the bone marked his life's story and permeated his literary work with an undeniable resilience and fortitude.
