The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Other Stories by Washington Irving
Ichabod Crane, a schoolteacher, came to Tarry Town in the glen of Sleepy Hollow to ply his trade in educating young minds. He was a gullible and excitable fellow, often so terrified by locals' stories of ghosts that he would hurry through the woods on his way home, singing to keep from hysterics. Until late one night, he finds that maybe they're not just stories. What is that dark, menacing figure riding behind him on a horse? And what does it have in its hands? And why wasn't schoolteacher Crane ever seen in Sleepy Hollow again? This edition also includes Washington Irving's other short stories, including Rip van Winkle.
Washington Irving (1783–1859) is generally credited with being the father of the American short story and was the first American writer to achieve international renown.
