About "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens













What would Christmas be like if this wonderful story had never seen the light of day? Go to David Perdue's site and find out how Charles Dickens saved this holiday.

and actually look at a high resolution (hand written) copy of the only manuscript of the story that Mr. Dickens left behind. How amazing is that?


Wait! There's more!


Last, but not least, is a rather nice electronic edition for your online reading pleasure:
