Every year around Christmas for at least the past 30 years I have read "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, and ever since I discovered he wrote "The Life of Our Lord" about 15 years ago I have included it among my annual or semi-annual readings after I read "A Christmas Carol", just like the Dicken's family would do after Charles Dickens passed away. I always thought the two should be published together, at least, and perhaps even include a few of his other Christmas tales.
