ABOUT THE BOOK:
Original publication: 1820
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow has been a classic of American literature for nearly two centuries. This book is a delightful book about the schoolmaster Ichabod Crane and his mishaps with the town's specter, known as the Headless Horseman. Written by Washington Irving, America's first international author, and edited and formatted for your Kindle, this eBook is sure to be the perfect addition to your collection of American classics.
The "Legend" relates the tale of Ichabod Crane, a lean, lanky and extremely superstitious schoolmaster from Connecticut, who competes with Abraham "Brom Bones" Van Brunt, the town rowdy, for the hand of 18-year-old Katrina Van Tassel, the daughter and sole child of a wealthy farmer, Baltus Van Tassel. Crane, a Yankee and an outsider, sees marriage to Katrina as a means of procuring Van Tassel's extravagant wealth. Bones, the local hero, vies with Ichabod for Katrina's hand, playing a series of pranks on the jittery schoolmaster – who later comes “face to face” with the town specter known as the Headless Horseman.
