Published on 22 October 2024, this latest book from our President, Lucinda Dickens Hawksley, is
now available to buy at the Charles Dickens Museum in London, and from other retailers. Beautifully presented, with rich colours and clear print, the book contains an eclectic miscellany of information on Christmases from ‘the AD 100s’ (p.x) to the present day, with the emphasis, as the title suggests, on the Christmas traditions that Dickens knew and helped to form.
