Enjoy these gentle, entertaining tales of Christmas past. Written
by Washington Irving, who is said to have been a favorite of
Charles Dickens, Old Christmas is an enchanting series of stories
about Yuletide celebrations in nineteenth century England. Spend
Christmas Eve coaching through the countryside where Irving meets
his old traveling companion Frank Bracebridge, who invites him to
attend Christmas Day festivities at his father's country estate.
The descriptions of the village, church services, Christmas games
and the amazing feast are truly delightful. These stories first
appeared in Irving's Sketchbook of Geoffrey Crayon in the early
1800's. The Christmas stories were then published together as a
gift book in 1875. This version is illustrated with hundreds of
lively drawings by Randolph Caldecott, engraved by James D. Cooper.
Caldecott, one of the most influential illustrators of the late
nineteenth century, is the namesake of the Caldecott Medal, awarded
annually since 1937 for the best illustrated children's book. Old
Christmas is proudly presented as originally published in 1886.
