The Book of the Year: A Brief History of Our Seasonal Holidays

Aveni, Anthony F. (Russell B. Colgate Professor of Astronomy, Russell B. Colgate Professor of Astronomy, Colgate University)

What is the connection between May Day and the Statue of Liberty? Between ancient solstice fires and Fourth of July fireworks? Between St. Valentine, the Groundhog, and the Virgin Mary? In The Book of the Year, Anthony Aveni offers fascinating answers to these questions and explains the many ways humans throughout time have tried to order and give meaning to time's passing. Aveni traces the origins of modern customs tied to seasonal holidays, exploring whatwe eat, the games we play, the rituals we perform, and the colorful cast of characters we invent to dramatize holidays. Vividly written, filled with facts both curious and astonishing, this engrossing book allows us to hear that beat more clearly and to understand more fully the rhythms we all dance tothroughout the year.
