Tales of a Traveler

Washington Irving is one of America's most enduring, and beloved authors. For nothing else, people know Washington Irving as the author of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." "Tales of a Traveler" was written in 1824, under the pseudonym "Geoffrey Crayon, Gent." One of Irving's better-known pseudonyms was Diedrich Knickerbocker, a name inextricably linked to New York City, and to today's New York Knicks. "Tales of a Traveler" tells a number of humorous stories and anecdotes about exotic dinners and the European travels of Geoffrey Crayon and his colorful relatives. Full of dry wit, "Tales of a Traveler" will please readers today as much as it pleased them in the early 19th century.Irving, Washington is the author of 'Tales of a Traveler ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781598181340 and ISBN 1598181343.
