Schott’s Almanac
redefines the traditional almanac to present a record of the
year just
past and is designed to be read, not merely consulted.
Practical
and entertaining, it tells the real stories of 2006, from
the winner of
American Idol to the Supreme Court nominations (including
how different
justices have voted), from baseball and football statistics
to the
founder of amazon.com’s new private rocketship factory.
In an age when information is plentiful but selection is
rare, Schott’s Almanac offers
both the essential facts and the lucid, provocative
analysis. It is
comprehensive, innovative, endlessly engaging – in short,
indispensable.
