THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW AND OTHER WORKS contains 33 short stories by American author and biographer Washington Irving. Originally published in 1820 as THE SKETCH BOOK OF GEOFFREY CRAYON, GENT., Irving's work includes the stories RIP VAN WINKLE and THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW, the story of a superstitious school teacher (Ichabod Crane) pursued by the Headless Horseman. The ghost is ostensibly the restless spirit of a decapitated Hessian soldier, or perhaps its Crane's nemesis Brom Bones in disguise.
