Description
Using images and motifs from a wealth of Christmases past, this collection of Hertfordshire traditions, customs and literary tales takes the reader on a seasonal journey into yuletides of yore.
Presented alongside images of local landmarks, events and characters, the extracts, compiled from a wide variety of sources, can be enjoyed by long-time residents and newcomers to the county alike.
From Christmas in medieval Hertfordshire to Dickens’ story of Tom Tiddler – inspired by a visit to his friend Edward Bulwer Lytton, at Knebworth House – to Christmas recollections of a prisoner of war, A Hertfordshire Christmas provides the reader with a comprehensive seasonal anthology of the county and will be a treat for all.
