David Easterbrook: An Oxford Story is a novel written by Polkinghorne Tregelles and published in 1883. The story follows the life of David Easterbrook, a young man who attends Oxford University in the late 19th century.

Along the way, David falls in love with a fellow student, but their relationship is complicated by societal norms and the disapproval of their families. As David navigates the challenges of university life and his personal relationships, he must also confront the larger issues of class, privilege, and social inequality that define British society at the time.
