Consistent and Informative

If you like this almanac, you'll love American Almanacs, A Living History, in which the Old Farmers Almanac is discussed in major detail from a conceptual, historical, and practical angle. American Almanacs, A living History is a great video or dvd for anyone who loves their farmers Almanacs.

There's nothing "old" about it

At one time, no home in America was complete without an Almanac. While that tradition has faded, the book that started it all--The Old Farmer's Almanac--remains a useful and interesting resource; one that no home should be without. The Old Farmer's Almanac features everything that makes an Almanac an Almanac, including its sunrise and sunset times, tide tables, and weather predictions for the entire year (and most of the time I've found them to be right on!). Amongst these essential facts, there are an abundance of entertaining stories that range from the historical and scientific to home and garden tips and amusing antedotes. This book just offers so much and I know that once you pick up, you'll be hooked. I've always found something of interest in The Old Farmer's Almanac and can't wait because the new edition comes out in September!
