H. H. Abbott (original) (raw)

Harold Henry Abbott (20 June 1891 – 4 January 1976) was an English schoolmaster, for the last fifteen years of his career headmaster of grammar schools, who published poetry as H. H. Abbott. His two volumes of 'Georgian'-type verse appeared in the 1920s and celebrated the lives of Essex rural folk and the Essex countryside, which he knew intimately. His poems have since fallen into relative obscurity.
