Hankering for a transporting read that will take you back to a simpler time? Settle in with Christmas Eve on Lonesome and Other Stories from renowned Kentucky author John Fox Jr. Whether you're a homesick Southerner who desperately needs a dose of way-back-when nostalgia or a true-blue Yankee who's curious about this one-of-a-kind culture, this collection is a fascinating read.

This edition of the book contains eight original illustrations, rejuvenated, and three additional Christmas illustrations that are unique to this edition of the book.

John Fox Jr. (December 16, 1862 – July 8, 1919) was an American journalist, novelist, and short story writer. Born in Stony Point, Kentucky, to John William Fox, Sr., and Minerva Worth Carr, Fox studied English at Harvard University. He graduated in 1883 before becoming a reporter in New York City. After working for both New York Times and the New York Sun, he published a successful serialization of his first novel, A Mountain Europa, in Century magazine in 1892. Two moderately successful short story collections followed, as well as his first conventional novel, The Kentuckians in 1898.

John Fox Jr. died in 1919 of pneumonia in Big Stone Gap, Virginia, and was buried in the family plot in Paris, Kentucky. His marriage to Austrian opera singer Fritzi Scheff in 1908 lasted just over four years. He had no children. Source: Wikipedia
