Vintage Christmas: Holiday Stories from Rural PEI
This delightful collection of eighteen true Christmas stories transports readers to Prince Edward Island and rustic, heartwarming holidays of the past.
Travel back in time to when Christmas was a simple affair: children were content to receive an apple, an orange, or a piece of barley candy in their stockings; clothes, meals, and decorations were all homemade; and it was time spent with family—not expensive gifts—that warmed hearts during the holiday season.
In this nostalgic story collection, author and local historian Marlene Campbell collects eighteen stories of Christmas celebrations from the 1930s, ‘40s, ‘50s, and ‘60s. Discover the simple joys of the unheated farmhouses, thrilling “big-city” department stores, and cozy barn stalls of rural Prince Edward Island. It turns out one thing has not changed: the most memorable part of any Christmas cannot be bought and sold.
