A Letter From A Friend In America To Luke Howard, Of Tottenham, Near London is a book written in 1826 by an anonymous author who identifies themselves only as A Friend In America. The book is a letter addressed to Luke Howard, a resident of Tottenham near London, and is written in defense of the character of Job Scott, a mutual friend who has recently passed away. The author of the letter seeks to vindicate and defend Scott against what they perceive to be unjust criticism and misrepresentation. They argue that Scott was a man of great integrity, piety, and wisdom, and that his contributions to the Quaker community were invaluable. The author also addresses some of the controversies that surrounded Scott during his lifetime, including his advocacy for the abolition of slavery and his views on the nature of Christ.Throughout the letter, the author offers personal anecdotes and reflections on their own relationship with Scott, as well as insights into the Quaker community in America during the early 19th century. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the life and legacy of one of the most influential Quaker thinkers of his time, as well as a testament to the enduring power of friendship and loyalty.And His Doctrines Shown To Be Consistent With Scripture And Sound Reason.
