    'The Little Minister' is a sentimental novel set in the Scottish weaving village Thrums, heavily based on Barrie's birthplace. The novel is concerned with an improvised minister who is struggling with his rioting congregation of weavers.

    Written by J. M. Barrie, one of the most beloved Scottish authors of all time, with his children's tale 'Peter Pan' becoming one of the most classic pieces of children's literature ever.
