Oscar Browning was a Fellow for life at King's College, Cambridge and he became an assistant master at Eton. He went abroad every school vacation, travelling in princely style with a courier. His associations with young men led him to fall foul of authority at the time and some senior members of King's were dismayed by his return to college. Nevertheless, he did good work in promoting King's to higher intellectual standards. His research was always of quality and his writing style is pleasing and always highly readable. He died at Rome in 1923.
