Mere Mortals Book Reviews Ghost Stories & Adventure | The Sketchbook Of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent (Washington Irving) BOOK REVIEW
Do your prefer old Dutch horror stories or refined English gentry?
'The Sketchbook Of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent' by Washington Irving is a mix of short stories (mostly about English observations from an American). It alternates between nonfiction & fiction, mostly told from the POV of the author. It's most famous for the two Dutch inspired stories of Rip Van Winkle & The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow but you'll also be entertained by Christmas with an eccentric nobleman, why American literature is being discounted, hunting for Shakespeare relics & tales of lovers & princes.
