Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American Authors for Young Folks Let us suppose," as that charming story-teller, Annie Keary, used to begin, "let us suppose" that these young people have never read Washington Irving, or never read him except in school-book "exercises." There they may have had a page or two out of Rip Van Winkle; perhaps the ludicrous description of Ichabod Crane, his school and his horse; possibly a mutilated chapter from the Alhambra - just enough to give a taste, yet just enough to spoil the subject. But do they really know Rip, and his dog Wolf? Poor vagabond Rip with his twenty years´ sleep! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
