The Sketch Book Of Geoffrey Crayon

Irving’s most famous work is – without doubt – this book. The Sketch Book appeared in 1819 and 1820 and contained 34 short stories and essays of English manners, written in a half-sentimental style, with a good deal of liveliness and consierable talent. Among the most prominent stories are „Rip Van Winkle“ and „The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow.“
