World, International and National Days (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780244495206)

I wrote this book to celebrate events through the ages that could easily have been forgotten. For each day of the year there is a relevant poem accompanied by some interesting facts; most are quite light hearted whilst a few are a serious reminder to mankind about the damage it is responsible for. September 30th - International Translation Day International Translation Day is held annually on this day to celebrate the feast of St Jerome, a Christian leader, teacher and translator, who lived between AD 347 and AD 420. He was fluent in Hebrew, Latin and Greek and became famous for his translation of the bible from Old Latin to a far superior form of Latin that was spoken and written by most people of that time.
