American Christmases

The WSJ's Opinion Journal features two good Christmas articles.

First, Washington's Christmas gift to the young America [nitpick - Fleming calls the country the United States of America, although at that time it was still governed by the Articles of Confederation, not the Constitution]

Second, the history of December celebrations, from Saturnalia to the Nativity to Virginia's Santa Claus.

Happy Holidays!
