    About this ebook

    The "Christmas Story" (often a "Christmas Ghost Story") was a popular Victorian tradition. Charles Dickens, who surely needs no introduction today, took part with gusto, penning dozens of Christmas tales (the most famous being "A Christmas Carol"). We are delighted to include not just the standard fare of "A Christmas Carol," but a total of 25 great stories (more than 1,000 pages!) Dickens penned for Yuletide reading in this volume. Included are:


    A CHRISTMAS CAROL

    THE CHIMES

    THE CRICKET ON THE HEARTH

    THE BATTLE OF LIFE

    THE HAUNTED MAN AND THE GHOST'S BARGAIN

    A CHRISTMAS TREE

    NOBODY'S STORY

    THE SCHOOLBOY'S STORY

    THE CHILD'S STORY

    THE POOR RELATION'S STORY

    THE SEVEN POOR TRAVELLERS

    THE HOLLY-TREE—THREE BRANCHES

    THE WRECK OF THE GOLDEN MARY

    THE TRIAL FOR MURDER

    GOING INTO SOCIETY

    SOMEBODY'S LUGGAGE

    Author

    Charles Dickens

    Charles Dickens was born in 1812 and grew up in poverty. This experience influenced ‘Oliver Twist’, the second of his fourteen major novels, which first appeared in 1837. When he died in 1870, he was buried in Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abbey as an indication of his huge popularity as a novelist, which endures to this day.
