An Historiall Expostulation against the Beastlye Abusers, Both of Chyrurgerie and Physyke, in oure Tyme

The surgeon John Hall, born 1529/30, published this work in 1565 as an appendix to his translation of a thirteenth-century surgical work. Hall was vociferously opposed to fraudulent medicine, and this work, edited by surgeon and antiquarian Thomas Pettigrew (1791-1865) and published in 1844, describes his struggles against quacks.
