Ernest G. (Ernest George) Henham

Born in 1870, Ernest George Henham was a Canadian-British author whose work is closely linked with Dartmoor and Devon in southwest England. He also wrote under the pseudonym John Trevena, a name that became especially associated with his fiction.

Henham published novels at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, including Menotah, God, Man and the Devil, and Tenebrae. His writing moved between regional storytelling and darker, more uncanny material, which is part of why he still draws interest from readers of neglected and early genre fiction.

He died in 1948, but his books continue to be rediscovered by readers interested in moorland settings, strange psychological moods, and the shadowy corners of Edwardian-era fiction.
