This is a folk tale of how the first Christmas Tree came into being. It tells of a hero, Winfried with his young companion stepping boldly into the pagan right of the passing into winter. He preaches the gospel of Christ and His birth on that night; then from the heavens came a miracle that resulted in the salvation of the people. To celebrate, they brought new life or the Christmas tree into their homes. A clean and very presentable copy in Brodart mylar.
