Publisher Description:

"Schott's Miscellany 2009: An Almanac" records the events of the past year, with the trademark clarity, humor and selectivity that have made Schott an international sensation.

In the modern age, where information is plentiful but selection and analysis elusive, "Schott's Miscellany Almanac "presents a unique biography of the year: from the historic 2008 presidential election to Britney Spears's mental breakdown and Major League Baseball's Mitchell Report; from marriage and crime statistics to the prolonged writer's strike and the incidence of shark-bites worldwide.

Practical, entertaining, and utterly compulsive, "Schott's Miscellany2009 "presents an annual volume that has changed the way people think about the year.
