Autor

Washington Irving, born in New York in 1783, became one of the most celebrated American writers of the nineteenth century. He began writing essays at the age of 19 and went on to author some of the nation's most enduring stories, including Rip Van Winkle and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. In addition to his fiction, he wrote an extensive biography of George Washington. Irving passed away in 1859, shortly after the publication of Life of George Washington.
