During the mid-1600s, the Puritans under Cromwell implemented a ban on Father Christmas, and Santa Claus didn't always enjoy widespread popularity. In 1686, Josiah King released a pamphlet titled "The Examination and Trial of Old Father Christmas," where Father Christmas was subjected to a trial by those concerned that Christmas was evolving into a materialistic celebration and its transformation into an occasion for excessive revelry and debauchery.
This new edition comes with an Easy to Read Layout designed to make reading comfortable.
