St. Nicholas: A Closer Look at Christmas
Angels, Seen & Unseen 2005: Four years in the writing, this is a book of prodigious research, yet it reads as a story that's hard to put down. 280 pages in glorious color. A 9 3/4" x 12" coffee-table hardback.

It is more than merely stories, it offers a roadmap for parents seeking ways in which they and their families may recapture the spiritual dimension of the season. And it shows how all these other derivative figures such as the Belsnickel, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, and Santa Claus came to be.
