Robert Graves

Robert Graves was born in 1895 in Wimbledon, England, into a literary family. He fought in the First World War as an officer in the Royal Welch Fusiliers, was severely wounded at the Battle of the Somme, and was even mistakenly reported dead. His war memoir, Good-Bye to All That, became one of the defining accounts of the conflict. After the war, he studied at Oxford, and in 1929 left England for Majorca, where he would live for most of the rest of his life.
