"Old Christmas" by Washington Irving, Part 1 of 3
Description
Today I have the first part of a longer story called Old Christmas by Washington Irving. Published in 1815, it explores some of the roots of our Christmas traditions as the main character visits a friend at Bracebridge Hall during Christmas to experience an old fashioned Christmas! It's a story that explores nostalgia and tradition, and is a lot of fun to read!
So settle in by the fire, grab some egg nog or Christmas tea, and enjoy today’s story!
