| General Note: | "Whilst this new Book of days, coming one hundred and forty years later, does not claim to be as all-encompassing as its ancestor, it has been our intention to preserve its structure and tenor. ... In a departure from the original edition ... articles on the days of the week have also been given, summarizing their origins, characteristics and associations"--Pref., p. vii. First published as: Chambers book of days, W. & R. Chambers, London & Edinburgh, 1964, in two volumes. Includes index. |
