This review is from: Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol : With 45 Lost Gustave Dore Engravings (1861) and 130 Other Victorian Illustrations (Hardcover)
I'm a lover of Charles Dickens and especially A Christmas Carol. I especially enjoy this book because of the beautiful and original engravings by Gustave Dore. It makes this version of A Christmas Carol so much more interesting and gives the reader a glimpse into the kind of books people read in the 1800s. Illustrations were common and enhanced the reader's enjoyment of a story. It was their version of television. Thanks for a wonderful book. A delicious bit of history and nostalgia.

Costuming ideas,

This review is from: Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol : With 45 Lost Gustave Dore Engravings (1861) and 130 Other Victorian Illustrations (Hardcover)
I got this while on a committee for costuming a production of "A Christmas Carol". While not showing enough variety and detail to be a huge amount of help, it was useful as one piece of our research in the "feel" we wanted to create for our production. Since we were on a very tight budget and were trying to use borrowed, found, and second-hand resources, this was an important part of our research.
