A Child's Christmas Treasury Publication Year: 1988 Modified Item: No Language: English Country/Region of Manufacture: Italy Format: Hardcover Subject: Christmas Subgenre: Christmas Topic: Christmas Carols Author: Mark Daniel Year: 1988 ISBN: 9780803704848 Compiled by: Mark Daniel Synopsis: Christmas is a time of cold weather and warm traditions: when special decorations are brought out of storage and the smells of favorite recipes fill the air; when families take time to sing holiday songs and tell the stories they love most. With these traditions in mind Mark Daniel has created a new holiday collection capturing the spirit of Christmases past and present. Breathtaking paintings from the Victorian and Edwardian eras, man of them previously unavailable to the public, are perfectly matched with the best-loved poems and stories of the season. Selections from Dickens, Rossetti, Moore, Stevenson, Wordsworth, and many others are placed alongside the carols and songs that have heralded Christmas for generations. You'll find "Ring Out, Wild Bells," "A Visit from St. Nicholas," "The Holly and the Ivy," and more, complemented by paintings of unmatched beauty. This book is already filled with tradition, and one that will take its own special place as a Christmas treat to look forward to.
