The first collected Edition of Dicken's contributions to Christmas was issued in the 'Charles Dickens' Edition of his works in 1871, under the general title of Christmas Stories from Household Words' and 'All the Year Round'. 

This Edition includes five additional stories: 'A Christmas Tree', The Poor Relation's Story', The Child's Story, The Schoolboy's Story', and Nobody's Story', which originally appeared in Reprinted Pieces, making this the definitive collection of Dicken's Christmas writings.

Every attempt has been made to provide an authentic facsimile edition. As the original manuscript (more than 100 years old) was used for reproduction, the type quality reflects this.

This prolific collection of favorite Charles Dickens Christmas classics is a heartwarming treasure, perfect for the holidays. The nearly 500 pages feature A Christmas Carol, The Chimes, and The Cricket on the Hearth and many more.
