He   was one of six children born to William and Anne Ross Cousin, his mother   being a noted hymn-writer, in Scotland. A fellow of the Faculty of Actuaries   and secretary of the Actuarial Society of Edinburgh, he revised and wrote the   introduction for Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s Evangeline in 1907. However, he   is best known as the editor of A Short Biographical Dictionary of English   Literature, a collection of biographical entries on numerous authors and   literary figures, originally published in 1910 for J.M. Dent’s “Everyman   Library” series. The bulk of his work was later used by David Clayton   Browning to compile the Everyman’s Dictionary of Literary Biography which was   released in 1958 and subsequently reprinted during the 1960s and 1970s.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Silver Scroll Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47132070117616,"sku":"9781531275976","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781531275976_p0.jpg?v=1763740866","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781531275976","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
