The Old Farmer's Almanac makes every day "useful, with a pleasant degree of humor" as it has since 1792, and, with the 2027 edition, it continues this tradition. Trusted by generations from all walks of life for its accuracy and honesty, the Almanac delivers fun facts, predictions, illustrated articles, and advice across many interest areas to readers who live--and aspire to live--close to the earth, with the intent of helping them to make informed decisions based on time-honored wisdom. As a calendar of the heavens, it provides detailed daily astronomical data (Sun/Moon rise/set times, length of day), tide times, and planet/star sightings for every sky watcher across North America, from novice to expert. As a calendar of the year, it presents annual and seasonal events, holidays, anniversaries, and timely trivia, as well as astrological Best Days and cycles. As a time capsule of the year, it contains cultural trends; weather forecasts and seasonal trends; useful articles on topics such as gardening, home arts and remedies, amusements and contests, history, husbandry, nature, cooking and recipes, folklore, pets, and sports; and much more for the curious and the clever.
Long recognized as North America's most beloved and best-selling annual, this versatile little yellow book is often imitated yet never equaled. It's an icon that instills in readers a feeling of connection to the history and landscape of North America and its people.
This hardcover Collector's Edition of the 2027 Almanac features a rigid cover (no hole) with dust jacket, which both help to protect the book and its pages--a plus for those who collect the Almanac each year! It also features whiter paper and larger type than what is found in the paperback classic edition, making it even easier to read.
