Since its publication in 1843, Charles Dickens' evergreen morality tale has been a fundamental part of Christmas celebration and reflection for families around the world. "A Christmas Carol" tells the story of Ebeneezer Scrooge, a mean-minded, selfish and miserly old man visited by the three spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future, who take him on a life-changing journey that forces him to question his life and transform into a kind, thoughtful and generous fellow. This University of Life edition includes the beloved 1915 Arthur Rackham illustrations!

About the Series: The University of Life Library was founded to publish a uniform collection of beautiful, heirloom-quality volumes of the great works of politics, philosophy, economics, science and fiction, the reading of which could provide all people not only with great enjoyment but, at minimal expense, with the benefits of a traditional, classical education. The Library's titles are chosen to illustrate, reinforce, and promote further inquiry into those concepts and values that originated in the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome and, being expanded and improved-upon by the greatest minds of Europe and the Americas over many centuries, particularly during the Enlightenment, form the bedrock of Western civilization. Being the embodiment of the virtues enabling the creation of the United States of America, that nation most influenced by the Enlightenment's illumination, and founded upon its precepts, each title opens with an illustration of Columbia, based on John Gast's iconic 1872 painting, American Progress. Additionally, each title is illustrated with related scenes. We hope our editions can provide entertainment, education and inspiration to the young and mature alike. We strive to provide a collection of well-loved, widely-varied works that will take pride of place on the bookshelves of families and businesses for generations to come.
