Dickens' most beloved story, 'A Christmas Carol', is as much a part of traditional Christmas as mistletoe, carolers and candlelight processions. Read publicly on Christmas Eve year year by Dickens himself, this heartwarming tale continues to stir in eyeryone the same feelings of repentance, forgiveness and love that transformed Scrooge from his grumbling 'Bah! Humbug!' to sharing Tiny Tim's happy 'God bless us, everyone!' Dickens' other Christmas stories in this wonderful collection also evoke both the gloom of those who lack Christmas spirit and the joy of those who raise a wassail cup to goodwill toward men.
