Rip’s Knickerbockers
Ebook
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. 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.
“In this devious, hypnotic parable, history hits the reset button. As in Washington Irving’s original tale of Rip Van Winkle, the . . . waggish character Rip has grown old overnight, and memory does a double take when he returns home. Only this time around, in the hands of Linden J. DeBie, the collective experience of early Americans proves even weirder and wilder than Rip’s.”
—Andrew Burstein, author of The Original Knickerbocker: The Life of Washington Irving
