PreserveCast is a podcast put out by Preservation Maryland. If you're not familiar with them, we at Addressing Gettysburg suggest you become familiar with them. They do great work and host Nick Redding does a fantastic job at the helm of PreserveCast. Thanks to Nick for reaching out to us and letting us release PreserveCast's episode about the history of Santa Claus.
"The PreserveCast team brings you a special release on the history of Santa Claus. You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen . . . but what about the jolly old elf holding the reins? St. Nicholas, Old St. Nick, Sinterklaas, or simply Santa Claus. He's gone by many names – but where does this rich and seemingly timeless tradition come from?
On this special edition of PreserveCast, we're headed down a winding reindeer path to uncover the rich history of Santa Claus and how he came to define the modern celebration of Christmas."- PreserveCast
