Edmund Howes

A dedication to Sir Henry Rowe, the lord mayor, a few notices of "sundry memorable antiquities",[1] and a continuation of matters "foreign and domestically" between 1603 and 1607,[1] constitute Howes's contributions.

In 1611 Howes issued another edition of the same work, with a further continuation to the end of 1610, and a new dedication addressed to Sir William Craven, lord mayor.

[1] Howes issued in 1615 an expanded version of Stow's well-known Annales or Chronicle, with an historical preface, and a continuation from 1600, the date of the last edition, to 1615.

[2] In 1631 he published his final edition of the Annales, with a dedication to Charles I, and a concluding address to the lord mayor and aldermen of London.

[3] In a letter to Nicholas, dated 23 December 1630, he refers to the passage of his work through the press, and mentions Sir Robert Pye as a friend.

William Shakespeare described as both poet and gentleman in Howes' 1615 update to Stow's Chronicle
