A Treasury of Old-Fashioned Christmas Stories
by Compiled by Michele Stung
It has been a pleasure to escape from the tedium and hectic pace of
the pre-Chistmas season to delve into this potpurri of Christmas stories.
This book has been aptly titled. It is a vertiable treasure of 21
gems written by some of the most talented writers of the past century.
The classic writers include O. Henry, Anthony Trollope, Louisa May
Alcott, Paul Lawrence Dundar, and others. The stories run the gamut
of humor, pathos, religion, nostalgia, love and nature. Each is a
glimpse into the world of Christmas in time gone by, and renews our
sometime buried feelings about the true spirit and value of Christmas.
This should occupy a special place on your library shelf, to be
read as a tradition, along with Dicken's Christmas Carol.
