"Through Scrooge’s Christmas Eve journey, we encounter a classic story about sin and repentance, birth and new-birth, death and resurrection, all culminating in the eternal splendors of festival and feast. Since its publication in 1843, A Christmas Carol, to paraphrase the words of the author’s preface, has haunted countless houses pleasantly." - Steve Turley The Worldview Guides from the Canon Classics Literature Series provide an aesthetic and thematic Christian perspective on the most definitive and daunting works of Western Literature. Each Worldview Guide presents the big picture (both the good and the bad) without neglecting the details. Each Worldview Guide is a friendly literary coach—and a treasure map, and a compass, and a key—to help teachers, parents, and students appreciate, critique, and begin to master the classics.
