Tales of a Traveler


Book Description

Washington Irving is one of America's most enduring, and beloved authors. For nothing else, people know Washington Irving as the author of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." "Tales of a Traveler" was written in 1824, under the pseudonym "Geoffrey Crayon, Gent." One of Irving's better-known pseudonyms was Diedrich Knickerbocker, a name inextricably linked to New York City, and to today's New York Knicks. "Tales of a Traveler" tells a number of humorous stories and anecdotes about exotic dinners and the European travels of Geoffrey Crayon and his colorful relatives. Full of dry wit, "Tales of a Traveler" will please readers today as much as it pleased them in the early 19th century.
