Philip Harwood
Edit ProfileEducation
After serving out his articles, he decided to enter the ministry, and studied at Edinburgh University.
Career
In 1840, Harwood moved from Bridport to London, where he became in 1841 assistant minister to William Johnson Fox at South Place Chapel. He had already been introduced by Fox to John Forster, and had become sub-editor of the The Examiner. He moved to The Spectator, and about 1849 he joined John Douglas Cook as sub-editor of the Morning Chronicle, then recently acquired for the Peelite faction.
The Chronicle was sold in 1854, and Harwood followed Cook to the Saturday Review, which was started in November 1855.
Harwood sub-edited it until 1868, when he became editor after Cook"s death. Harwood was seriously ill in 1881, and in December 1883 he retired from the editorship and went to live in Hastings, where he died 10 December 1887.
