About this product

Product Information

'The perfect companion to the seasons' - India Knight Welcome to The Almanac: A Seasonal Guide to 2021. If you are new to The Almanac then welcome; if you are a regular reader then hello! The Almanac is about celebrating the unfolding year in all its various facets. The old dependables which I include every year are back: moon phases, sun rises and sets, tide time tables and the sky at night. As ever there are seasonal recipes and monthly gardening tips for the flower and vegetable garden too, as well as a bit of folklore, and nature and a song for each month. This year's edition has a theme: movement, migration and pilgrimage. This was not a reaction to the unsettling events of last year - it was half written by the time Covid-19 hit - but writing it from lockdown did give me a heightened appreciation of the way in which Britain and Ireland have always and continue to be places of movement, and are intimately connected to the rest of the world. You will find within this book migration tales for each month of this year, but I have also searched out seasonal tales of human movement, and included a pilgrimage for each month, some ancient, some current, all underlining the spiritual benefits of putting one foot in front of the other. Every month I have included a method of navigating using the stars, sun or moon, so you can find your way around in the dark (or just look out of your window and know where south is). And our monthly folk songs are all shanties this year, work songs with movement at their very heart, created to coordinate muscle power to drive sailing ships backwards and forwards across the Atlantic Ocean, and containing influences from the eastern seaboard of the US down to the Caribbean and beyond mixed with British and Irish folk traditions. These songs are stitched through with movement and travel, as is this Almanac.

    I was thrilled

    I received the 2020 Almanac as a Christmas present last year and I’ve been thrilled with its content all year ... so not knowing what small Christmas gift to give the men in my extended family it just seemed so right ... so I ordered 6 2021 ones but on chatting to a few friends on this idea they decided they would like the same gift ... so I’ve just ordered 5 more of 2021 including one for me ...like me they are female ... it’s a lovely fascinating little book full of interesting facts and interesting ‘things’ I know they will all love them .

  • It gets well read, throughout the year

    I enjoy reading it, in an "oh, that's interesting" sort of way. I can't help learning things from it, in a painless sort of way. It makes me want to look around a lot (just to check if things are true) - they are! I even tried out a couple of recipes from last year's book. And they worked! It makes me want to look at the moon and stars and stuff because it explains what is happening and when. I bought last years volume, and I shall buy next years as well!

  • Such an interesting book

    My dad got last year’s edition and was really impressed with all the interesting information in it so thought I would treat myself and am really enjoying it so far.
