By Quinn Kaufman, Senior Editor, PRR, Inc. (New York USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Memorable Advertising Calendars Through the Ages (Mass Market Paperback)
After reading this book, I now have a clear picture of the wonders of calendars and time-keeping. Reading this was just as wondrous as learning about the solar system for the first time. And the pictures of calendars that accompany the text are visually stunning. Leap Years, Babylonian Calendars, Almanacs of 1733, Christian Calendars, Hebrew Calendars, Lunar Time Vs Solar Time, Illustrating Calandars in Ancient America, Ancient Egypt, Nude Calendars of Marilyn Monroe, and many more put this book on my favorite-book shelf. TRULY GREAT!
