A Christmas Tree

A Christmas Tree by Charles Dickens is offered here in a clean English digital edition prepared for fluent ebook reading. The work stands within classics and gives modern readers direct access to a public-domain classic with navigable structure and a restrained typographic presentation. The opening pages establish the book's atmosphere with this first movement: I have been looking on, this evening, at a merry company of children assembled round that pretty German toy, a Christmas Tree.
The tree was planted in the middle of a great round table, and towered high above their heads. It was brilliantly lighted by a multitude of little tapers; and everywhere spa This edition is suited to readers who want a reliable, uncluttered version of the text for study, rediscovery, and sustained reading.
