Jacob T. Marley

Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" is a holiday favorite and this new book, written in the style of Dickens, tells the story from the perspective of the character who was a ruthless taskmaster business partner who taught and influenced Scrooge and then saved him from the brink of a terrible fate.

"Jacob T. Marley" is to "A Christmas Carol" as the world-famous "Wicked" is to "The Wizard of Oz" and is a masterfully crafted story teaching us, once again, the true meaning of Christmas.
