    Description

    Illustrated

    Bracebridge Hall, or The Humorists, A Medley was written by Washington Irving in 1821, while he lived in England, and published in 1822. This episodic novel was originally published under his pseudonym Geoffrey Crayon. The tales centre on the occupants of an English manor with a number of individual plots as a series of character sketches. Washington Irving (1783 - 1859) was an American author, essayist, biographer and historian of the early 19th Century. He is best known for his short stories The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle, both of which appear in his book The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. Bound by Burn and Co. with binder's label to rear pastedown.
