The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Illustrated edition by Washington Irving Pdf

One of the early examples of American fiction, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow continues to enthrall the readers of today. The story is set in Sleepy Hollow, an isolated and gloomy town, full of secrets and rumored to be haunted by ghosts. The “Legend” begins when the two of the Sleepy Hollow’s inhabitants- an ordinary school teacher Isabod Crane and a local hero Abraham "Brom Bones" Van Brunt- begin competing for the heart of a beautiful eighteen year-old Katrina Van Tassel. On one night, both men meet at a party thrown by Katrina’s family, and Bones recalls his encounter with the Headless Horseman, the town’s infamous ghost. Bones’s story appears as a mere myth, until that very night, after an unsuccessful attempt to get Katrina’s hand, Crane himself meets the Headless Horseman and mysteriously disappears… One of the most engrossing stories of all time, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow now became even more entertaining in this exclusive illustrated edition.

The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow By Washington Irving by Washington Irving Pdf

Washington Irving's classic, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," has been making spines tingle since 1820! Irving tapped into a timeless fear: the prospect of a late night journey shrouded in fog turning suddenly fatal. Our imaginations conjure every conceivable danger, but in one of history's most famous encounters, one Ichabod Crane comes-dare we say it, face to face? -with the "specter known at all the country firesides," the Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow. A classic, distinctively American tale, that evokes additional terror as Halloween comes and goes each year, this is the original, 1820 version, as originally found in Irving's collection of short stories entitled "The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent."

Are all the lights on? Is there a parent in the house? Are the windows shut and locked? Double-check! They HAVE to be if you are going to read this book, which is undoubtedly the scariest rendition of one of the greatest ghost stories ever told: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. While you may have heard of Ichabod Crane, Katrina Van Tassel, and the Headless Horseman, you've never SEEN them quite like this. So, take a deep breath and take a long look. And you may want to bring a flashlight to bed with you tonight.... WHY IS THIS EDITION SPECIAL? Because includes: THE AUTHOR'S ACCOUNT OF HIMSELF Where Irving introduces himself to the reader by saying that he has been fond of traveling and observing people and places since he was a child. As a boy he would explore all the different regions of his city and its surrounding country, learning all of the histories and legends of these places. As he grew older he continued to travel and explore, and he explains that had he just been interested in scenery and nature, he never would have felt the need to leave America, which is extremely rich in natural beauty. Irving finds greater charm, however, in the long histories of art, literature, and people to be found in Europe. and THE SPECTRE BRIDEGROOM A short story in where Irving evokes the colorful landscapes of his Hudson Valley hometown, and conjures characters and creatures from its historical past for a unique kind of weird tale that speaks directly to America's experience as a fledgling nation fashioning its own folk heritage
