Washington Irving
The Sketch Book Of Geoffrey Crayon
eBook
(Jazzybee Verlag Dec. 11, 2013)
Irving's most famous work is - without doubt - this book. The Sketch Book appeared in 1819 and 1820 and contained 34 short stories and essays of English manners, written in a half-sentimental style, with a good deal of liveliness and consierable talent. Among the most prominent stories are "Rip Van Winkle" and "The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow."
