The International Book of Days
Search in google:
\ Library JournalA companion volume to the fourth edition of The American Book of Days, also by Christianson, this fun-to-browse book presents an international tour of holidays and major historical events. Organized by day of the year, the book covers some 1500 key events in world history: December 15th, for example, is the date the Bill of Rights was ratified, jazz musician Glenn Miller disappeared while flying over the English Channel, and Communist rule in Romania crumbled. The book is weak on cross references and good-quality maps but features an extensive index and a highly legible format. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.\ \
