Description
|
|
|
|
The original Farmer's Almanac, in continuous publication for 220 years, is still fulfilling the mission set for it by founder Robert B. Thomas: "to be useful, with a pleasant degree of humor." A reference book that reads like a magazine, the Almanac includes daily weather predictions and seasonal trends (with color maps), accurate astronomical data, and gardening advice for growing vegetables and flowers (and some worthwhile weeds). Here too are ideas, hints, and shortcuts; recipes for Dutch ovens; and articles on such topics as cures for a headache, quirky measurements, and heirloom animals; as well as advertisements for log mills and pea shellers.
