{"product_id":"christmas-carol-and-other-holiday-treasures-9781667208589","title":"Christmas Carol and Other Holiday Treasures","description":"\u003cb\u003eBrighten the holiday season with five classic tales from the master of Christmastime fiction.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCharles Dickens's most famous holiday story is the 1843 publication \u003ci\u003eA Christmas Carol\u003c\/i\u003e, but he was a prolific writer in the yuletide genre and a great contributor to many now-prevalent traditions of the holiday itself. In the year following the release of \u003ci\u003eA Christmas Carol\u003c\/i\u003e, Dickens released \u003ci\u003eThe Chimes: A Christmas Story of Some Bells That Rang an Old Year Out and a New Year In\u003c\/i\u003e. This story combined his enduring sympathy for the poor with the notion that we must always strive to live in nobler ways. In 1845 came \u003ci\u003eThe Cricket on the Hearth\u003c\/i\u003e, a novella that, in its time, surpassed even \u003ci\u003eA Christmas Carol\u003c\/i\u003e in popularity for stage productions. The years 1846 and 1848 respectively brought \u003ci\u003eThe Battle of Life\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain\u003c\/i\u003e. Given this wealth of Christmas-themed works, it is no wonder that Dickens is sometimes referred to as \"the man who invented Christmas.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-16189689\"\u003eCharles Dickens\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Canterbury Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.40w x 1.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781667208589\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1667208586\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC004000\"\u003eClassics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC058000\"\u003eHolidays\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC019000\"\u003eLiterary\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Canterbury Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44318910120075,"sku":"9781667208589","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/5100\/7115\/files\/img_56e044d5-8891-479a-b79c-ebd8398ce48d.jpg?v=1761661207","url":"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/products\/christmas-carol-and-other-holiday-treasures-9781667208589","provider":"CA Corrections Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
