A must for the reference shelf of every Jewish Professional, Oct 8 1999
By Yitzhak Joel Miller - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Comprehensive Hebrew Calendar: Twentieth to Twenty Second Century (Hardcover)
A great reference for holiday dates, candle lighting times, Torah & Haftarah portions, etc. Well laid out and easy to access. If you're looking for a scholarly book on the origin of the Hebrew Calendar, buy something else. Though it's not intended as anything but a reference book, the introduction to the Hebrew Calendar in this book is well-written, concise, informative, and useful.

Excellent Jewish Calendar, Jan 23 2006

Everything I ever wanted in a book-calendar - the order of the Haftarahs, the date and holidays are all clarified either, in the beginning with tables, or in the calendar itself. The introduction is so informative, clear and useful that it precludes many other detailed books.
Be sure to obtain Leo Levi's halachic times for home and travel. It is an excellent supplement to this calendar, that I continue to use for barmitzvahs, yahrtzeits and everything else related to the calendar.

Excellent calendar, but you can find it for much less elsewhere. I got it brand new for $29.99
