Amazon.com description: Product Description: Christmas is a favorite time of year because it is adorned with so many special celebrations, happy memories, delightful stories, wondering songs, & rich recipes. While many of the most satisfying aspects of the season have passed into common practice, their meaning & significance have often been shrouded in ignorance, superstition, or neglect. Hence their greatest power & true purpose have been lost. This book describes the origins of many of our most cherished holiday traditions, observations & rituals. Here are the whys & wherefores of mistletoe, Advent wreaths, plum pudding, holly & ivy, caroling, sleigh rides, Christmas trees, jingle bells, & much more. There are poems & carols; delicious treats to make; & even daily readings & prayers.
