About William Briggs

William Briggs was an Irish-born Canadian Methodist minister and publisher. His popularity as a preacher led him to become pastor of Metropolitan Church in Toronto. As book steward from 1879 to 1918 the Methodist Book and Publishing House became one of Canada's most prominent publishing houses; after he stepped down it was renamed Ryerson Press.
