The story is set circa 1790 in the Dutch settlement of Tarry Town, New York, in a secluded glen called Sleepy Hollow.

As Crane leaves a party he attended at the Van Tassel home on an autumn night, he is pursued by the Headless Horseman, who is supposedly the ghost of a Hessian trooper who had his head shot off by a stray cannonball during \"\"some nameless battle\"\" of the American Revolutionary War, and who \"\"rides forth to the scene of battle in nightly quest of his head\"\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 38\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.09 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 29, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55152172138787,"sku":"9789391316891","price":25.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/8279\/8371\/files\/QjV1Y0EwclRFRGpyR1RzYU84RlVUUT09.webp?v=1779786948","url":"https:\/\/homeschoolbookbarn.com\/products\/the-legend-of-sleepy-hollow-paperback-1","provider":"Homeschool Book Barn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
