Richard Aldington is probably best known for being one of the first three Imagist poets, along with Ezra Pound and H.D. Around the Fall of 1912 in London, Pound proclaimed himself and his two good friends to be the three original Imagists, and was instrumental in getting the early poems of Aldington and H.D. published in Poetry Magazine
(edited by Pound's friend Harriet Monroe in Chicago).
