John Harris Society
Phillip Hills

The John Harris Society is an organisation that celebrates the life and work of John Harris (1820 - 1884) : John Harris was one of Cornwall’s most famous sons. He published 15 books of poetry plus an autobiography and wrote 100 hymns, as well as a number of tracts on subjects ranging through slavery, war, alcohol abuse and cruelty to animals, despite the hardness and busyness of his life. It is said that he beat Lord Tennyson to the Tercentenary Shakespeare prize in 1864!   John Harris’s writing is also an excellent primary historical source for life, both in the countryside and the town, in Cornwall in his period.
