Who invented the art of giving Christmas gifts and how?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge\blue{\mid{\underline{\overline{\text{Verified\: Answer}}}\mid}}$John Pintard, a member of the New York Historical Society who was attempting to tame Christmas, introduced St. Nicholas to the United States in the early 1800s. At about the same time, Washington Irving popularized the figure with his "A History of New York" in 1809 in which he mentions St. Nick 25 times.
