The Ghost Professor blends historical fiction, time travel, and satirical commentary on academia. Dr. Gordon H. Kingman statistician, professor, and accidental time traveler embarks on a series of adventures across decades of American history. From 1920s New York speakeasies to 1960s Greenwich Village, from Buddy Holly's Clovis studio to the tense moments in Dallas before JFK's assassination, Gordie bears witness to history's turning points while wrestling with his own identity.
Returning to modern academia in 2025, he confronts culture wars, administrative bloat, and the realities of being a ghost within higher education. Witty, nostalgic, and richly detailed, The Ghost Professor is both a time-travel odyssey and a sharp reflection on how history and education shape and distort our lives.
Fans of Michael Crichton, Stephen King's 11/22/63, and campus satire will find this novel a unique mix of humor, history, and heart.

When a professor gains access to a time machine, he finds himself at history's crossroads-from Prohibition speakeasies to JFK's Dallas, from Dylan's Greenwich Village to Buddy Holly's New Mexico. But the real test comes when he returns to modern academia, where bureaucracy and cancel culture prove just as strange as time travel.
