I Walked in Santa's Boots is an enchanting holiday treasure and historical autobiography, combining facts and legends to deliver a spellbinding Lowcountry Christmas story. Families will delight in each chapter of this unique Christmas classic set in Beaufort, SC, and the surrounding Lowcountry. This book is also beautifully illustrated with hundreds of photos from 1993 to 2015.
For the first time, author Jack Gannon shares the personal story of his own epiphany and transformation, from a young wide-eyed child almost caught out of bed when Santa arrived at his house to a man who nearly lost his own faith after learning his father suddenly died. He also reveals a child's request of Santa Claus for a special request on Christmas Eve for his daddy fighting overseas, to a little girl fitted with new legs who asked an unusual question to Saint Nick, and a newly-widowed elderly lady who was alone for her first Christmas in decades. Learn what a little girl asked from Frosty the Snowman, how Santa met Anna and Elsa from the hit movie "Frozen", what inspired an older man determined to get out of his hospital bed, and more.
This veteran Saint Nicholas reveals these heartwarming true stories and lessons from his twenty-three-year career as a Christain Santa Claus for the children and families of the military bases and residential communities across Beaufort County and beyond. You will feel the Christmas Spirit reborn within you as you journey with Jack, and at the end you too can say I Walked in Santa's Boots!
