About John S. Howson

John Saul Howson (1816-1885) was born at Giggleswick-on-Craven, Yorkshire. He became senior classical master at the Liverpool College in 1845 under his friend W. J. Conybeare, whom he succeeded as principal in 1849. He held this post until 1865, and it was largely due to his influence that a similar college for girls was established at Liverpool. Howson’s chief literary production was The Life and Epistles of St. Paul in which he collaborated with Conybeare. His other works include Scenes From the Life of St. Paul and Their Religious Lessons and Metaphors of St. Paul.
