Clement Clarke Moore and the Night Before Christmas
The article recounts how Clement Clarke Moore wrote A Visit to St Nicholas on Christmas Eve 1822 in New York City. It notes his reluctance to publish under his name, the later public recognition after twenty two years, and the poem’s rise to a national classic with no royalties to Moore. It also mentions his family, Chelsea links, memorials, and his graveside observance each December 24.
