Description: This beloved short novella expands the biblical story of the three Magi with a fictional
account of a fourth Magus named Artaban. While his three companions travel west,
following the Star of Bethlehem, Artaban stops to aid a dying man and consequently
does not make it in time to laud the newborn Christ. For years, he wanders as a pilgrim,
seeking Christ and holding on to the precious gift he had intended to give him. Van
Dyke�s gentle and often lyrical Christmas tale has since inspired several plays, films,
music, and adaptations for children�s books.
