Book Description
The poem, which has been called "arguably the best-known verses ever written by an American", is largely responsible for some of the conceptions of Santa Claus from the mid-nineteenth century to today. Prior to the poem, American ideas about St. Nicholas and other Christmastide visitors varied considerably. On Christmas Eve night, while his wife and children sleep, a man awakens to noises outside his house. Looking out the window, he sees St. Nicholas in an air-borne sleigh pulled by eight reindeer. After landing his sleigh on the roof, the saint enters the house through the chimney, carrying a sack of toys with him. The man watches Nicholas filling the children's Christmas stockings hanging by the fire, and laughs to himself. They share a conspiratorial moment before the saint bounds up the chimney again. As he flies away, Saint Nicholas wishes everyone a "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night." Clement Clarke Moore ( 1779 – 1863) was an American Professor of Oriental and Greek Literature, as well as Divinity and Biblical Learning, at the General Theological Seminary of the Protestant Episcopal Church. Located on land donated by the "Bard of Chelsea" himself, the seminary still stands today on Ninth Avenue between 20th and 21st Streets, in an area known as Chelsea Square. Moore's connection with that institution continued for over twenty-five years. He is the author of the yuletide poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas", which later became famous as "'Twas the Night Before Christmas".

Book Description
Rudyard Kipling's 'Rudyard Kipling Premium Collection' is a literary treasure trove encompassing the greatest works of one of the most esteemed writers of the British Empire. This comprehensive volume includes some of Kipling's most iconic pieces, such as 'The Jungle Book,' 'Kim,' and 'Just So Stories,' all accompanied by beautiful illustrations that enhance the reading experience. Kipling's writing style is marked by vivid storytelling, rich imagery, and a deep understanding of the human condition, making his works resonate with readers of all ages. Set against the backdrop of late 19th and early 20th century British colonialism, Kipling's narratives offer a complex portrayal of the complexities of power, identity, and belonging. Through his diverse characters and settings, Kipling weaves tales that are both entertaining and thought-provoking, offering readers a glimpse into the intricate fabric of the Empire during that era. Rudyard Kipling, a Nobel Prize laureate, drew inspiration for his works from his own experiences growing up in British India and later journeying around the world. His unique perspective as an outsider looking in on the imperial project informed his nuanced storytelling, which often challenged imperialist assumptions and celebrated the diversity of cultures and peoples he encountered. Kipling's enduring legacy as a literary giant continues to captivate and inspire readers across the globe, cementing his reputation as a master storyteller with a keen eye for detail and a deep reverence for the complexities of human nature. I highly recommend 'Rudyard Kipling Premium Collection' to any reader interested in exploring the intricacies of British colonial literature and the enduring legacy of one of its most celebrated authors. This comprehensive volume offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of Kipling's storytelling prowess, providing a captivating reading experience that showcases the depth and breadth of his literary achievements.
