Christmas Eve & Christmas Day

Edward Everett Hale

This delightful collection of stories, primarily set in 19th-century New England, offers a vivid glimpse into the way Christmas was celebrated during that era. Unlike the modern image of a Christmas tree surrounded by a mountain of presents, the holiday was marked by simpler, more heartfelt gestures. In a time when consumerism had yet to take hold, gifts often carried profound emotional significance, such as the unexpected arrival of a letter from a long-lost loved one or the safe return of a husband braving a blizzard after setting out on a mission of mercy.  
These moments, filled with relief and gratitude, were often considered the greatest gifts of all. The narratives are brimming with scenes of sleigh rides gliding through snowy landscapes, groups of carolers filling the night air with song, and acts of selfless generosity that capture the essence of the season. This heartwarming collection truly embodies the charm and spirit of an old-fashioned holiday, offering a treasure trove of stories that inspire warmth, joy, and a sense of nostalgia.
