Dickens's Christmas Books & Sketches by Boz, Illustrative of Every-day Life and Every-day People (Diamond Edition).

After the heart-warming, sentimental seasonal tales which Dickens wrote between 1843 and 1848, the Diamond Edition commemorating Dickens's Second American Reading Tour features seven scenes from Dickens's earliest work, "Our Parish," the twenty-five chapters from "Scenes," and twelve chapters from "Characters," the text established by Chapman and Hall in 1839.
