Old Christmas: From the Sketch Book by Washington Irving

3.0

A fascinating, Dickensian depiction of Christmas traditions in the 19th-century English countryside. Made me nostalgic for a time when Instagramming gifts wasn't a prevalent part of Christmas. Be sure to read an edition containing Caldecott's wonderful illustrations (can be found here: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/20656/20656-h/20656-h.htm).
