This is Christmas in a book. It details every aspect of a traditional Christmas: with its strange customs and long history. It covers where the traditions such as stockings, mistletoe and Santa came from; the components of and how to cook an excellent roast dinner; make-it- yourself Christmas decorations/presents; and the historical side of Christmas. With, of course, a generous dollop of Christmas trivia: what have been the Christmas number ones? How many white Christmases has Britain had? What are the names of all santa's reindeer, and how do you remember them all? This book will help you swot up for Christmas quizzes, make the day run smoothly and answer your niggling questions about the country's favourite time of year. The Pocket Bible series provides you with all the essential information you'll need at your fingertips. It contains a unique mix of practical information, alongside trivia and little-known facts to enlighten and entertain you.
