Old Christmas by Washington Irving (Christmas E-Book)


Do yourself a favor and direct your browser over to archive.org and explore their wonderful collection of Christmas e-texts.

This book by Washington Irving (author of such literary classics as THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW) is wonderfully illustrated and written in the mid 1800's and details stories that he remembered from his childhood. One thing that I find absolutely amazing when reading this old literature is the vocabulary that is used in these 'children's' books.

The book is available as an online 'flip book', PDF, TXT, and DjVu format.
