The Great American Christmas Book is reviewed in today's round-up of holiday books in The New York Times: “The Great American Christmas Book,” compiled by Aaron Schlechter, recommends large snowballs rather than snow bricks as the building blocks for an igloo. It also gives the ground plan for an igloo McMansion with kitchen, pantry, parlor and den. This seems like overkill, but the book also explains how to pick a Christmas tree (or grow your own), how to make whirligigs and how to sing all verses of “The 12 Days of Christmas.” Recipes, old games, favorite stories and the “Yes, Virginia” editorial round out the nostalgia-fest.
