Testimonies is a 1952 novel, set in North Wales, by the English author Patrick O'Brian. It was first published in the UK under the title Three Bear Witness, and in the US as Testimonies. Although the book's first English reviews were not encouraging, its American reviews were quite different and in an influential article Delmore Schwartz highly praised the book at the expense of John Steinbeck, Evelyn Waugh, Angus Wilson and Ernest Hemingway.
