James Henry Dobkowski

'Twas James Henry Dobkowski

In 1823, the Troy Sentinel published "A Night Before Christmas" giving America its first glimpse at Jolly Ole St. Nick. Over one-hundred and fifty years later, James H. Dobkowski has magically re-imagined Santa Claus to match today's multicultural norms in this warmhearted family-oriented story about a down-and-out dad, estranged from his wife and son, who screws up the Yuletide and then spends the days after Christmas trying to make it right.
