This photographic celebration of the holiday season glows with the warmth and joy of the most magical time of the year. Families and romantic souls are transported around the country to view through frosted panes the beauty of winter and the magical pageantry and traditional celebrations of Christmas. Evocative text and stunning images will inspire wanderers and armchair travelers alike to sample the unique, romantic, charming and eccentric vignettes of the holidays and perhaps conjure up plans to experience, on their own, the amazing variety of holiday and winter opportunities, both in their own neighborhood or on a Christmastime road trip.

Horse drawn sleighs transport viewers through a fairytale landscape of dazzling Christmas displays, past cozy New England inns to blazing bonfires in the southern bayous, dogsledding through the Midwest toward straining ice climbers and lavish madrigal feasts in the Rockies. Curl up in front of this virtual fireplace any time of the year and share the joy of the season.
