You'll love this [book] because you get to see the results, laid out
in clean crisp typography, with many small details (holidays, moon
phases, ...) that make this book a pleasure to use as a reference.
Well worth the price.

Readers who doubt that calendrical tabulations are of general interest should
check their library's circulation records; in the reviewer's library, a number
of the books were charged out. The authors, experts in this field, have
published a number of works, including one containing the calendrical
algorithms they used to prepare the tables. The preface provides a detailed
explanation of each calendar and its idiosyncrasies to make comparison of the
calendars much easier. References to sources of information about the various
calendars evaluate what each source does or does not provide. Its more precise
computer calculations make this work more accurate than some standards of the
past. Seasons, stages of the moon, leap years, and holidays are indicated. A
well-printed work is preferable to a computer version since computer versions
become useless as computer hardware and software change. Although somewhat
expensive, this work will maintain its usefulness for many years to
come. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All levels.

[A] fine reference work.

...an excellent addition to the library of any individual who
is interested in calendars and ... a must for main libraries.
- James R. Moore, Trinity Journal (Spr 2005):

...absolutely indispensable...the result of a gargantuan task... The
comprehensive nature of covering three hundred years is likely to address all
calendrical needs of the present generation...readers will find Calendrical
Tabulations 1900-2200 tremendously satisfying.
