Jarvis, Washington Irving, 1809
Washington Irving was born on this day in 1783.
There are certain half-dreaming moods of mind in which we naturally steal away from noise and glare, and seek some quiet haunt where we may indulge our reveries and build our air castles undisturbed.
The "Artist's Edition" of Irving's masterpiece, The Sketchbook of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., is HERE.
