Synopsis "Twas the Night Before Christmas: A Visit from St. Nicholas"

This caringly-produced facsimile edition, with charming cover and interior illustrations by Jessie Wilcox Smith, was originally published in 1912. The beloved and iconic Christmas poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (more commonly known as "'Twas the Night Before Christmas") was written in 1823 by Clement C. Moore. The poem was an instant sensation and still, two hundred years later, is synonymous with Christmas and embodies many of the characteristics still associated with Santa Claus today.

Clement Clarke Moore (1779-1863) fue un erudito bíblico, profesor y poeta estadounidense, conocido principalmente por escribir el icónico poema navideño "Una visita de San Nicolás" (o "La Noche antes de Navidad"), que popularizó la imagen moderna de Santa Claus, nombrando a sus renos y describiendo su trineo. Nacido en Nueva York, educado en Columbia College, fue profesor en el Seminario Teológico General y también un promotor inmobiliario que influyó en el desarrollo de Greenwich Village.
