Description
In his classic ghost story that resurfaces every year on Halloween, Washington Irving cleverly weaves together factual locations -- the Old Dutch Church and churchyard, 'Major Andre's Tree,' some actual family names, including Van Tassel and Ichabod Crane -- and a little bit of Revolutionary War history with pure imagination and fantasy. "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow: Facts behind the Fiction" attempts to separate the facts from the fantasy.
