5.0 out of 5 stars The best Almanac to date, February 12, 2009
This review is from: The New York Times Almanac 2009: The Almanac of Record (Mass Market Paperback)
I received this Almanac a month ago.
I had anticipated loads of info, but I was surprised about the way they were so neatly organized in a manner that is very useful even when you want to access information fast and do not have much time to go through many books, or the web.
I recommend this Almanac to anyone who wants to get a hold of up to date info as well as general knowledge.

5.0 out of 5 stars In defense of almanacs, February 14, 2009
This review is from: The New York Times Almanac 2009: The Almanac of Record (Mass Market Paperback)
In an era when Google has made dictionaries almost obsolete, it is comforting to have a "hard copy" on hand to provide the charts and tables and detail to expand on what we find on Google.

4.0 out of 5 stars Italian lira?, February 8, 2009
This review is from: The New York Times Almanac 2009: The Almanac of Record (Mass Market Paperback)
It is true that the book is incredibly informative and certainly worth having; but I was very surprised to learn that Italy still uses the Italian Lira.... Strange, I am Italian and I was sure we'd been using the Euro for over 7 years... Jokes aside, I guess that part hasn't been proof-read for the last 7 years. I hope there aren't many such mistakes.
