"Oh! but he was a tight-fisted hand at the grindstone, Scrooge! a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner!" -First Stave
Look Inside the Book
Despite its yuletide popularity, few have actually read this wonderful book about the saving of Ebenezer Scrooge. In this very short “carol in prose” there are both surprises—Dickens’s colorful descriptions and farcical sense humor are rarely translated to the screen—and the warmly familiar, characters such as Bob Cratchit, Nephew Fred, Jacob Marley, the ghosts, Fezziwig, Tiny Tim, and Dickens’s throng of nameless, but memorable Londoners.
Written in the wake of the dehumanizing Industrial revolution, this Canon Classic will be enjoyed by both those who have never heard the story and by those who think they have. The Canon Classics series presents the most definitive works of Western literature in a colorful, well-crafted, and affordable way. Unlike many other thrift editions, our classics feature individualized designs that prioritize readability by means of proper margins, leading, characters per line, font, trim size, etc. Each book’s materials and layout combine to make the classics a simple and striking addition to classrooms and homes, ideal for introducing the best of literary culture and human experience to the next generation.
This edition does not feature a worldview guide or introduction.
