Vincent Todd Harlow (1898–1961) was a prominent English historian of the British Empire.
In 1950, he succeeded Reginald Coupland as the Beit Professorship of Commonwealth History at the University of Oxford, a post he held until his death in 1963.
His early work was on the seventeenth-century Caribbean but he is best known for his book, The Founding of the Second British Empire, 1763-1793, the first volume of which was published in 1952.
His second volume, subtitled "New Continents and Changing Values", was published posthumously in 1964.
