This new edition takes the place of the earlier Jewish calendar which went only to 1941. The new calendar goes ahead much farther and goes back to the year 1924. To find Yahrzeit dates, Bar Mitzvahs and other anniversaries is a task of a few moments with this convenient book at hand. Jewish holidays up to the year 1965 are also listed on a special page.
