Old Christmas And Bracebridge Hall: From The Sketchbook Of Washington Irving (1919) is a collection of short stories and essays written by the American author Washington Irving. The book is divided into two parts, with the first section focusing on the traditions and customs of Christmas in England during the 18th and 19th centuries. Irving provides vivid descriptions of the feasting, games, and festivities that were enjoyed by the English during this time, as well as anecdotes and stories that capture the spirit of the holiday.The second section of the book is devoted to Bracebridge Hall, a fictional country estate that serves as the setting for a series of stories and character sketches. Through these tales, Irving explores themes of love, friendship, and human nature, while also providing a glimpse into the daily lives of the English gentry.Overall, Old Christmas And Bracebridge Hall is a charming and engaging work that captures the spirit of a bygone era. Irving's writing is both witty and insightful, and his descriptions of Christmas and country life in England are sure to delight readers of all ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
