A stunning new edition of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and other
stories including Rip Van Winkle. Little treasures, the FLAME TREE
COLLECTABLE CLASSICS are chosen to create a delightful and timeless
home library. Each stunning, gift edition features deluxe cover
treatments, ribbon markers, luxury endpapers and gilded edges. The
unabridged text is accompanied by a Glossary of Victorian and
Literary terms produced for the modern reader. First published in
The Sketch Book in 1819-20, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow tells the
story of schoolmaster Ichabod Crane, who comes to live in Sleepy
Hollow, a Dutch settlement near the Hudson River. It is a place
that abounds with local superstitions, including one concerning a
headless horseman. Crane's eye is caught by Katrina van Tassel, the
daughter of a wealthy farmer, and he starts to court her. This
behaviour provokes the ire of another would-be-suitor, Brom Bones,
a renowned village prankster. At a party, Crane confesses his love
for Katrina, who rejects him. On his way home, he encounters the
'horseman', who hurls his head at Crane. Ichabod Crane is never
heard of again. The only traces that remained of him were his
horse, saddle, hat and a mysterious shattered pumpkin. What did
happen to Ichabod Crane that night, and who was the Headless
Horseman?
