The World Almanac And Book of Facts 2006 by Ken Park (2005, Paperback)

I have always liked the World Almanac, and have been using one for many years. However, the copy that I had was 1991 - so it was time for an "update."

The Almanac is a wonderful source of information - and even though most of it is available on the Web, it is still convenient to use.

I am very pleased with the 2006 version, and I hope that I don't wait another fifteen years before I buy a later version!

The World Almanac and Book of Facts 2006 by Ken Park (2005) is a must have for reference library of elementary school, middle school, high school and college students. Current and up to date detailed facts per year in the book format make information easy to find and use for writting papers or other school projects. Have you ever played, "Where in the world is Carmin Sandiago"? This book helps you to win the game! If you want hands on reference for when someone was born and the details of that year this is the book for you.

GREAT BOOK. WILL CONTINUE TO BUY EVERY YEAR. IT IS AN ENDLESS WEALTH OF INFORMATION ON JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING. WE REFER TO IT ALL THE TIME.

Great source of various statistics and facts. I purchase one every 10 years. Good facts about sports, world history, demographics, actors, etc..
