    Christmas Eve & Christmas Day

    Here is a charming collection of stories, mostly set in New England in the 1800s, that depict how Christmas was celebrated then. 
     
    Seems that Christmas was not always a tree with dozens, if not hundreds, of gifts spread around the tree. Consumerism not being then what it is today, the gift might simply be a letter from a long-missing loved one, or simply the return through a blizzard of a husband who had left only hours ago on a mission of mercy. The relief of the anxiety of waiting for the person or merely news that the loved one had survived was often the best gift to be had. 
     
    There are sleigh rides, caroling through the night and selfless giving to fill one with the warmth and joy of the season. A true old-fashioned holiday treasure.

    In “Christmas of Long Ago,” Lucy Maud Montgomery transports readers back to a simpler time, weaving a gentle tale filled with memory, warmth, and the spirit of the season. Told through the reflective eyes of an older narrator, the story recalls a childhood Christmas in a rural village—one filled not with grand gifts or glittering decorations, but with love, laughter, and small wonders that made the holiday magical. 
    Montgomery captures the beauty of family togetherness and the quiet joy of giving from the heart. Snow-covered landscapes, candlelit rooms, and homemade presents evoke a tender nostalgia for the innocence and simplicity of bygone days. As the narrator looks back, the story reminds readers that the true meaning of Christmas lies not in material things, but in affection, generosity, and shared memories that endure through the years.
