John Galt (2 May 1779 - 11 April 1839) was a Scottish novelist, entrepreneur, and political and social commentator.
The Ayrshire Legatees; or, The Pringle Family is a novel by Scottish author John Galt, first published in 1821. It follows the eccentric Pringle family from rural Ayrshire, Scotland, as they travel to London to claim a significant inheritance from a relative. The story is told through letters and other documents, humorously exploring their cultural clashes with sophisticated London society and satirizing the social norms of the time.
