1876130654New York: Harper & Brothers 1876. Large octavo pp. 1-11 12-163 164: blank 1-3: ads 4: blank note: first leaf is a blank flyleaves at front and rear forty illustrations some full page by Alfred Fredericks original pictorial bevel-edged olive green cloth front and spine panels stamped in gold rear panel stamped in blind a.e.g. brown coated endpapers. First edition. Attebery calls this episodic children's fantasy "a rather disappointing sequel to Irving's treatment of the same Catskill scenery" but this fairy story has little to do with the scenery of the region and nothing to do with Rip's adventure. It's an imaginative though somewhat didactic dream fantasy of Catskill fairies of Dutch and American Indian ancestry and Nip an elf of Germanic ancestry from the Berkshires who visit Joe a poor farmer's boy to play and work making gifts on Christmas Eve. During this enchanted evening all animals and inanimate objects including a grandfather clock and a seashell can talk to human beings. All relate episodes from their lives to young Joe most of the experiences illustrating moral values. The evening's revelry owes more to Hoffmann's Nutcracker or A Midsummer Night's Dream than Rip's adventure among the gnomes. The excellent illustrations by Fredericks are reminiscent and perhaps influenced by the work of Richard Doyle. Some or all of this material appeared serially in HARPER'S NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE in 1875. The book is copyright 1875 but it was published in 1876. A physically beautiful book that was displayed at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876 because of its typography and displayed again as part of a contemporary exhibition at Columbia University Judging a Book by its Cover. Virginia Wales Johnson 1849-1916 U.S. writer born in Brooklyn New York was primarily an author of books for children. Attebery The Fantasy Tradition in American Literature p. 79.
