We are pleased to offer this collection of books by Clement Moore who is best known as the author of the Christmas classic "A Visit from St. Nicholas."

In addition to his academic contributions this catalogue presents a good collection of his famous poem better know to us as "Twas the Night before Christmas," with the earliest published example as well as first illustrated editions which give us our modern image of Santa Claus.
