James Garrard is Canon Precentor of Ely. He was Denyer and Johnson Student of the University of Oxford from 1991-1992 and was awarded a doctorate in 1992 for a thesis on Archbishop Howley. He was ordained in 1994. He has published several articles and reviews in the areas of Church history and liturgy and contributed to the 3rd edition of the Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church.
’The life and career of William Howley (1766-1848), hitherto one of the few Archbishops of Canterbury lacking serious biographical treatment, has been brought to revealing life in this readable as well as learned and primary source-based study by James Garrard. Garrard is masterly in his exploration and detailing of Howley’s diocesan and parliamentary work in the House of Lords on behalf of church, educational, and political reform. Garrard also focuses on Howley’s important chairmanship of the Ecclesiastical Commission, as well as his theological views in historical context and above all in relation to the Oxford Movement. The result is a fruitful and illuminating re-appraisal of the intellectual, spiritual and ecclesiastical context in which Howley operated and moved.’ Peter Nockles, Manchester Wesley Research Centre, UK
