The Christmas season is upon us, so in the seasonal spirit we’ll be doing some Christmas-y books. Dickens will be next, but we’re starting with Old Christmas by Washington Irving. This is one of the books in the OpenLibrary collection, see the beautifulillustrated version here – though we’ll still link to Project Gutenberg for the text file.
