Christmas Short Story #5: Christmas Eve by Washington Irving

Ally reads the short story "Christmas Eve" by Washington Irving, which appeared in The Sketchbook of Geoffrey Crayon, along with Rip Van Winkle and Sleep Hollow. Irving's portrayal of Christmas in England was very influential in the development of American Christmas traditions.

 

This is Ally signing off for the year. Mary will pick up next week with a few more Christmas short stories and then we will begin a new novel in January. Merry Christmas!
