With the publication of The Sketch Book, he won a measure of international recognition. Then when he was fifty, he returned to America and bought “Sunnyside”, his famous home. There he spent the rest of his life, living a life of leisure and comfort, except for a period of four years (1842--1846), when he was Minister to Spain.

He seeks refuge in the mountains where he meets several mountain spirits and tastes the liquor left by them out of curiosity. Because of the magic power of the drink, he falls into a twenty-year sleep. When he wakes up, everything has undergone a tremendous change.
