Spend delightful hours looking and reading through Tom Jerman’s award-winning book, Santa Claus Worldwide. In it, Tom Jerman takes readers on an entertaining, picture-packed exploration into the history of midwinter gift bringers from all over the globe, and shares the surprising origin story of the American Santa Claus.
Readers will be surprised to learn Santa’s true origin story (hint: it wasn’t in Clement C. Moore’s popular poem, “The Night Before Christmas”), plus they’ll be treated to a deep dive into the backstories of other midwinter gift-givers from all over the globe. Jerman’s exhaustive research is evident in his detailed descriptions, and he masterfully showcases the rich diversity among the characters while also pointing out shared traits. Santa Claus Worldwide is the first legitimate history of Santa Claus in more than a decade, and the first history in more than 100 years to provide a comprehensive look at the Yuletide gift-givers throughout the world.
