Howie wrote ''Lives'' of the Protestant worthies of Scotland from Patrick Hamilton, the first martyr, under the title of ''Biographia Scoticana''.〔''Biographia Scoticana : or, A brief account of the lives, characters and memorable transactions of the most eminent Scots worthies, noblemen, gentlemen, ministers, and others, from Mr Patrick Hamilton ... to Mr James Renwick ...; Together with a succinct account of the lives of other seven eminent divines ...; As also, an appendix, containing a short historical hint of the wicked lives and miserable deaths of some of the most remarkable apostates and bloody persecutors in Scotland, from the Reformation to the Revolution''.〕 first published in 1775. It became a classic of Scottish Church History. He revised and enlarged the work, 1781-5, and this edition was reissued, with notes by William McGavin, in 1827. In 1870 the Rev. William Henderson Carslaw revised Howie's text and published it, with illustrations and notes, and a short biographical introduction; and in 1876 a further illustrated edition appeared, with biographical notice compiled from statements made by Howie's relatives, and an introductory essay by Dr. Robert Buchanan.〔
''A Collection of Lectures and Sermons by Covenanting Clergymen'' was issued by Howie in 1779, with an introduction by himself. He edited in 1780 Michael Shields's ''Faithful Contendings Display'd'', an account of the Church of Scotland between 1681 and 1691. He also wrote on the Lord's Supper, patronage, and other topics, and prefaced and annotated other religious works.〔
