Charles Felton Pidgin (1844-1923) was an American author, statistician, and inventor known for his contributions to literature and public administration. Born in Roxbury, Massachusetts, Pidgin pursued a diverse career, making significant impacts in both his professional and literary endeavors. Pidgin wrote a number of other novels, often focusing on historical themes or romantic and dramatic plots. Some of his notable works include: "Blennerhassett": A historical romance set around the life of Harman Blennerhassett, an associate of Aaron Burr. In addition to his statistical work, Pidgin was a prolific writer. He authored several novels, plays, and non-fiction works. His most famous novel, "Quincy Adams Sawyer and Mason's Corner Folks" (1900), was a bestseller and later adapted into a stage play and a silent film. The novel is celebrated for its depiction of small-town American life and its engaging storytelling. "The Climax": A play that was also well-received and adapted into a film. Charles Felton Pidgin's legacy is multifaceted. He is remembered as a skilled statistician who contributed to the development of labor statistics, an inventive mind who held multiple patents, and a talented author whose novels captured the essence of American life in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His works continue to be appreciated for their historical value and storytelling.
