This innovative how-to guide and reference book on the Jewish holidays provides a well-rounded foundation for both knowledge and action. Unlike many books of its kind, Celebrate! The Complete Jewish Holidays Handbook is nondenominational and comprehensive in approach. The author includes the historical development, religious importance, and personal significance of each Jewish holy day in a way that is useful to both beginners and those well versed in Jewish practice. The richness and depth of Jewish tradition, with a full range of information on why and how to celebrate, is presented in a lively, warm, and user-friendly manner.

This text is a celebration of all things campy, cheesy, sparkly, and fruitcakey from the most beloved of seasons. Over 50 recipes and craft ideas for tacky wreaths, customised trees, glittered garlands, overly bejeweled festive wear, Christmas feasts from a can, and much more.

Comprehensive source of information about the calendars and holidays of the world's religions. Provides concise information about the beliefs, practices, and history of more than 20 major religions. Additional features include bibliography, calendar index, holiday index, and master index.

This comprehensive handbook of secular holidays is both useful and fun to read. It takes readers through a year full of celebrations. Each entry lists the holiday's date, origin, and different ways it has been observed, with fascinating details and suggestions for creative activities.

Coverage of publications outside the UK and in non-English languages expands steadily until, in 1991, it occupies enough of the Guide to require publication in parts.
