Why the Almanac of American Politics remains an essential read amid today’s fractured political climate
On Sept. 2, a rarity will arrive in bookstores: a volume that manages to bridge the divides of today’s highly polarized politics.
That book is the Almanac of American Politics. An updated version of the Almanac has been published every two years since 1972, and at more than 2,000 pages — real paper pages, along with a digital version — it could easily serve as a doorstop. It is known as the “Bible of American Politics.”
