The Wingtown Parson's Linen Duster is a novel written by Isabella Pierpont Hopkins and originally published in 1903. The story is set in the small town of Wingtown, where the local parson, Reverend Joshua Smith, is known for his eccentricity and his habit of wearing a linen duster instead of a traditional clerical robe.The novel follows the lives of several of the town's residents, including the parson himself, as they navigate love, loss, and the challenges of small-town life. There are romantic subplots involving the parson's daughter, Mary, and her suitors, as well as the town's doctor and his love interest, a young woman from the city.Throughout the book, the parson's linen duster serves as a symbol of his unconventional approach to life and religion. He is a man who is not afraid to challenge tradition and to embrace new ideas, and his duster is a physical manifestation of that spirit.Overall, The Wingtown Parson's Linen Duster is a charming and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into life in a small town at the turn of the 20th century. It is a story about love, friendship, and the importance of staying true to oneself, even in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
