A Bit About Britain's High Days and Holidays

Mike Biles

4.9/5 (32163 ratings)

Description:High Days and Holidays are special occasions, celebrations, or commemorations. They occur throughout the year, some wanted, some not, some remembered more than others. In days gone by, the passing year was marked by seasonal or religious feast days of one sort or another; in some respects, they still help define our calendar.'A Bit About Britain’s High Days and Holidays' explores a baker’s dozen of Britain’s notable occasions and traditions, from New Year onwards, the things we associate with them and the stories behind each one. If you’ve ever wondered who Valentine was, where Christmas crackers come from, or thought about the Easter bunny (and who hasn’t?), 'A Bit About Britain’s High Days and Holidays' is for you. And, whilst this book is not just for Christmas, it does include an A-Z of the festive season. A couple of recipes have been thrown in for good measure too, as well as an agenda for your hosting your very own Burns’ Supper. Oh – and at the end is an extensive list of Britain’s Big Days and events that normally form part of Britain’s Year - through Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. So, if you’ve ever been baffled as to why some Brits do some of the things they do, or have even questioned why you do them yourself, this little book might help. Occasionally lighthearted, fascinating and useful (but never all three simultaneously), once you've read it, keep it handy to refer to when needed.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
