Beautiful new edition of Henry van Dyke's timeless classic tale of the other wise man, along with a preface by the editor.

You know the story of the three wise men of the east, and how they traveled from far away to offer their gifts at the manger-cradle in Bethlehem. But have you ever heard the story of the Other Wise Man, who also saw the star in its rising, set out to follow it, yet did not arrive with his brethren in the presence of the young child Jesus? Of the great desire of this fourth pilgrim, and how it was denied yet accomplished in the denial? Of his many wanderings and the probations of his soul? Of the long way of his seeking and the strange way of his finding the one whom he sought? I would tell the tale as I have heard fragments of it in the hall of dreams, in the palace of the heart of man.

I listened to this audio book on the recommendation of a family member, and it has become a new holiday favorite for my entire family. After listening myself, I shared with my wife and four kids, and they were all enthralled. Highly recommend as a Christmas listen, or any time of the year!

Wonderful Christmas story with superb narration

I love this story! It’s one of my favorite stories to hear at Christmas time. I’ve heard a condensed version of this Story many times, but this was my first time hearing the full unabridged version. It has a beautiful message, and the narrator does a great job reading it!

I love this short story! It’s an annual tradition for me to read/listen to it each Christmas. The lesson taught is a “pearl of great price.” 🥲 The narrator, Brian Boggess, does a wonderful job reading the story, as well.
