Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A review from the Los Angeles School Journal, Volume 4:
MARY ROBERTS RINEHART can always be depended upon to write cleverly and entertainingly. She can turn out a full-sized novel, half a dozen short stories and a sheal of special article in the time the average writer takes to organize the material for an essay or a brief tale. This effort is "A Poor Wise Man." a novel so up to date as to be almost futuristic.
It treats of all manner of present day problems, centering around the conflict between capital and labor, with enough space given to Bolshevism to keep us titillating. If her lovely Lily, who is the very modern heroine, is a bit too lacking in judgment and in common sense, the hero makes up for this lack by being the embodiment of all that is fine, wise, and heroic.
Plenty of color, of life and action, with some really good character sketches, all combine to make a book that few readers will find dull.
