Knicker, the Founder of ASLaN,
is happy to begin this bibliographic effort, and he solicits the help
of librarians and laymen alike in order to make this a quality public
resource for information on Christmas, Nicholas, and Santa. The first bibliography posted comes from his Alma Mater, Fordham University. This is where Edgar Allen Poe studied and where Knicker's son carries on the tradition of scholarship and fun. Please send suggestions for this list or internet links to sintnick (at) aslansoc [dot] org |
