Introduction

Inspired by Washington Irving's legendary tale Rip Van Winkle, Rip's Knickerbockers takes a spin in a new and unexpected direction. It’s the same old Rip Van Winkle, but this time his long nap finds him in an entirely unfamiliar world where everything seems upside down.

Highlights

The novel contains wonderful references to pre-colonial and post-colonial America. But it is the unexpected that must be expected in this light, humorous, and entertaining novel.
