With his beloved Gothic tales Washington Irving is said to have created the genre of the short story in America. Though Irving crafted many of the most memorable characters in fiction from Rip Van Winkle to Ichabod Crane his gifts were not confined to the short story alone. He was also a master of satire essay travelogue and folktale as evidenced in this classic collection. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow said Every reader has a first book.... which in early youth first fascinates his imagination and at once excites and satisfies the desires of his mind. To me this first book was The Sketch Book of Washington Irving... The charm of The Sketch Book remains unbroken the old fascination still lingers about it.
