Talk:Henry Beston

Name
We say "Born Henry Beston Sheahan" and "Beston began writing fairy tales under the name "Henry Beston"". Did he sometime change his name to Henry Beston?

Library of Congress reports a source for "Henry Edouard Sheahan", apparently as his real name. It treats "Henry Beston" and "Henry B. Beston" as pseudonyms. For instance.

HathiTrust provides full view of that collection, The Firelight Fairy Book (1919), with the original cover. Cover and title page show "Henry B. Beston". See also the two preliminary items (Foreword "Henry Beston, Esq."; "Henry B. Beston"). --P64 (talk) 20:23, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
