A Lighted Lamp : Scenes of Christmas Through Time
Overview
In all times and in all places, it has been universal to humankind to mark the darkest days of the year with a festival striving for the coming of the light. In our own culture, many of us call our midwinter festival Christmas-that great season that celebrates not merely light, but the coming of the Light of the World.Covering almost a thousand years of history, these scenes take the reader to: Anglo-Saxon Scotland, Medieval England, Post-Regency England, Pioneer America, Depression Era America, 1970s America, and a contemporary monastery in England. Customs have changed, struggles have varied, but one constant has remained-the season has never failed to bring hope and joy."In a collection of stories ranging from Scotland a thousand years ago to modern England (with visits to the American prairie in between) Donna Fletcher Crow brings to life the true meaning of Christmas in this faith-filled and heart-warming book." Dolores Gordon-Smith, critically acclaimed author of the Jack Haldean Golden Age murder mystery series
