No holiday season is complete without this beautiful hardcover edition of the heartwarming story of Ebenezer Scrooge and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future, along with four other Dickens stories. With an introduction by Margaret Atwood and illustrations by Arthur Rackham.

First published in 1843, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens was republished in 1852 in a new edition with four other Christmas stories--"The Chimes," "The Cricket on the Hearth," "The Battle of Life," and "The Haunted Man." These beloved tales revived the notion of the Christmas spirit--and have kept it alive ever since.

This display-worthy collector's hardcover of Dickens's holiday classics features an introduction by Margaret Atwood along with stunning full-color illustrations by Arthur Rackham.

Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Everyman's Library Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.

Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was one of England's greatest writers. Best known for his classic serialized novels, such as Oliver Twist, A Tale of Two Cities, and Great Expectations, Dickens wrote about the London he lived in, the conditions of the poor, and the growing tensions between the classes. He achieved critical and popular international success in his lifetime and was honored with burial in Westminster Abbey.
