About author
Jerome Klapka Jerome
Know by his friends and family simply as “J”

His life and times (1859-1927)

In the Beginning:
Jrome K. Jerome was born May 2nd, 1958, in Walsall, Staffordshire, England. His father was a coal mine owner, and his mother a respected heiress who financed those mines with her family`s money.

Education:
Mr. Jerome believes a well stocked library and an inquisitive mind are the primary ingredients for an excellent and more than acceptable education. To punctuate this, he goes as far as giving the British Museum`s Reading Room high credit for his own personal education!

He`s such a Dickens!
Many authors of Jerome`s biographies and followers of his works agree that Jerome seemed to be idolizing Mr. Charles Dickens. Some have even gone as far as saying that “J” wanted to become Dickens in all facets of his life. In many ways, he succeeded… But that`s all loose speculation, and neither here not there.
