Reseña
IRVING WASHINGTON(1783 - 1859) American writer who studied law at private universities and worked in various law firms. He was a contributor to New York newspapers writing satirical articles. Under the pseudonym Geoffrey Crayon, he wrote the essays and stories collected in The Sketch Book (1820), his most famous work. Two of his stories, Rip Van Winkle and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, have become classics of American literature.
SINOPSIS
Perhaps the marker of a true mythos is when the stories themselves overshadow their creator. Originally published under a pseudonym as in The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Other Stories gave America its own haunted mythology. This collection of larger-than-life tales contains Washington Irving's best-known literary inventions-"Rip Van Winkle", "The Spectre Bridegroom" and, "The Angler"-that continue to capture our imagination until today.
