""A Letter to Sir Walter Scott, Bart: In Answer to the Remonstrance of Oxomiensis"" is a book written by the pseudonymous authors Harroviensis and Oxoniensis and originally published in 1822. The book is a response to a remonstrance, or protest, made by Oxomiensis against Sir Walter Scott's portrayal of the Church of England in his novel ""St. Ronan's Well.""

They also criticize Scott's portrayal of clergy members as hypocritical and immoral. The book provides a fascinating insight into the religious and social debates of the time, as well as the literary and cultural influence of Sir Walter Scott. Overall, ""A Letter to Sir Walter Scott, Bart"" is a thought-provoking and engaging work that sheds light on the intellectual and cultural debates of early 19th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
