A Christmas Carol (Illustrated by Milo Winter)

A Christmas Carol has been credited with restoring the holiday to one of merriment and festivity in Britain and America after a period of sobriety. First published on 19 December 1843, it tells the story of sour and stingy Ebenezer Scrooge's ideological, ethical, and emotional transformation resulting from supernatural visits from Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come. The novella met with instant success and critical acclaim.
