A diminutive and socially awkward professor, upon the closing of his college, accepts a similar position at another college where he experiences disdain, distrust, dismay, and even personal physical destruction before his competence, integrity, and Christian goodness eventually win him the adulation and friendship of students and community.
Like all of Mrs. Lee’s work, Professor Pin, originally published in 1899, is enjoyable, satisfying, and finishes with one of her trademark emotional endings guaranteed to bring tears to your eyes. Her fiction (albeit with a touch more credit to our Savior, Jesus Christ) is highly reminiscent of Horatio Alger’s novels in tone, plot, and structure; but don’t make the mistake of thinking the comparison with her more famous contemporary places Mrs. Frank Lee in an unfavorable light. Her writing does not suffer by the comparison.
