Book Description:

Instead of the usual Victorian-style illustrations, for this age-old Christmas poem by Mr. Moore, Bernadine Stetzel illustrated the story as in her father's birthplace log home and surrounding area of Seneca Country, Ohio in her remarkable American-primitive style of painting. The text is hand printed by Mrs. Stetzel in a lovely readable style which adds personal charm to this story.
