On This Date May 8: What ELSE Happened on YOUR Day? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781546348191)

Here's a chance to view a very special slice of the past...the events that occurred over the past two millennia on May 8. How many times did something that happened on that day nudge the direction of history from that moment forward? People were born, people died, ships sailed and ships sank, music was composed, technology altered how we communicated, wars were won (or lost, depending upon one's viewpoint), and weather changed the face of the earth. And then there are the little things that made everyday life a little better, like when on May 8, 1956 Alfred E. Neuman appeared on the cover of Mad Magazine for the first time. An On This Date booklet has been created for each day of the year, and will be updated annually.
