Stories of Saint Nicholas (Syracuse Univ Pr)
James Kirke Paulding
Jacket Description/Back: Throughout the 1820s and 1830s, Paulding wrote a number of Christmas tales, the best of which are brought together in this collection and which predate Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol. Paulding presents his stories as they have been translated from the original Dutch by a fictitious author. In them Saint Nicholas - a sixteenth-century Dutch Protestant baker - miraculously befriends those who uphold Dutch traditions and sets straight those who are either mean or given to "newfangled notions". Marc Notes: Selection of stories originally published in: Book of Saint Nicholas. New York: Harper and Brothers, 1836. Publisher Marketing: A collection of Christmas stories which highlights the New York Dutch customs and traditions. This text includes The Book of St. Nicholas and the novel The Dutchman's Fable.
