The standard almanac The question of historical accuracy

This is a standard almanac of the kind 'Information Please' has been putting out for years. I read some of the country - entries to check for accuracy. I found them generally quite good, but not without a certain bias at times. This Almanac provides all the usual features of almanacs, and can be a useful source of reference. Even with the 'Internet' there are times when certain kinds of information are more readily found by turning pages.

Almanac Review

This is a well-organized reference that I use every day. I have purchased one of these annually for a lot of years. The ONLY bad thing is that they never have figured out a way to keep the colored pages with the maps from falling out after a little while. Even if you baby those pages, they are doomed.

Likley the very best

I found the 2006 Almanac excellent and full of information. It is a must for the office desk
