商品簡介
It is said that C harles Dickens invented C hristmas, and within these pages you'll certainly
find all the elements of a quintessential traditional C hristmas brought to vivid life: snowy
rooftops, gleaming shop windows, steaming bowls of punch, plum puddings like speckled
cannon balls, sage and onion stuffing, miracles, magic, charity and goodwill.
This Vintage C lassics edition gathers together not only Dickens' Christmas Books ('A
C hristmas C arol', 'The C himes', 'The Battle of Life','The C ricket on the Hearth' and 'The
Haunted Man') but also stories that Dickens wrote for the special seasonal editions of his
periodicals All the Year Round and Household Words, and a festive tale from The Pickwick
Papers.
