Summary:

"What is 225 years old yet always of the moment? "The Old Farmer s Almanac! "America's oldest continuously published periodical, beloved by generations for being useful, with a pleasant degree of humor, celebrates its unique history with a special edition and more readers than ever before! As the nation's iconic calendar, the 2017 edition will predict and mark notable events; glance back and look forward, with historic perspectives on food, people, and businesses; salute legendary customs and folklore; hail celestial events; explore, forage, and cultivate the natural world; forecast traditionally 80 percent accurate weather; inspire giggles and perhaps romance; and more too much more to mention all in the inimitably useful and humorous way it has done since 1792."
