Summary
This beautiful, giftable Christmas collection features old-fashioned works from classic authors who invite you to a feast of holiday nostalgia.
Stories and poetry have been part of the Christmas season for generations, reminding us that the heart of the holiday never changes. A Vintage Christmas is a unique collection of lesser-known Christmas tales, reflections, and poems from beloved authors across the centuries and makes the perfect gift for the literature lover in your life.
Discover the charming story from L. M. Montgomery about love and sacrifice in a little log house. See Christmas through the eyes of a child in a New England colonial village with Harriet Beecher Stowe. Remember the reason Christ came to earth in the poetry of Anne Brontë. Share with your family the delightful letter Mark Twain wrote as Santa Claus to his three-year-old daughter.
This beautiful treasury takes us back to the firesides, simple gifts, and warm family moments of Christmases past as we cherish the timeless truths and joys of the season.
Narrated by an ensemble cast, A Vintage Christmas includes stories from Louisa May Alcott, Charles Dickens, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Mark Twain, L. M. Montgomery, and Selma Lagerlof, as well as poems from John Milton, Christina Rossetti, William Makepeace Thackeray, Anne Brontë, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
This beautiful collection features the voices of Laura Kirman (L. M. Montgomery and Anne Bronte), Gordon Griffin (Charles Dickens and Alfred Lord Tennyson), Eve Karpf (Eliza Cook and Christina Rossetti), Mike Grady (Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Makepeace Thackeray, and Robert Bridges), Barry Scott (Paul Lawrence Dunbar), Henry O. Arnold (William Dean Howells, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Ralph Henry Barbour, and Joyce Kilmer), Nan Gurley (Harriet Beecher Stowe, Kate Douglas Wiggin, and Nora A.

Great narration
Much better narration than expected! I highly recommend this book of Victorian Xmas stories. It was well worth the money and made a nice change to listen to in the car when I was all Xmas caroled out for a while

Traditional tales & poetry from America.
Some stories were very moralistic, some funny. The poetry was beautiful. All from Victorian-age America.
