Charles Dickens (1812-70) visited North America in 1842 and then toured the U.S. in 1867, performing a dramatic one-man readings of A Christmas Carol—delighting and captivating American audiences while further cementing the story's legacy as a cultural cornerstone. A Christmas Carol was henceforth frequently adapted in North America, influencing everything from food traditions, feasting, charity, family reunions to holiday theatre, film, music and television, becoming a hybrid of British and North American culture.
