In old times, the first almanac was a chart showing the movements o f the stars for a period of
several years. Later almanacs were printed in a book form and included information which was
especially useful to farmers. In the sixteenth century, almanacs began to be issued every year and
included predictions of the weather. At about the same time, almanacs included calendars listing
holidays. In the seventeenth century, almanacs included jokes. Benjamin
Franklin continued this
tradition with “ Poor Richard’s Almanac”, which was published in 1732-1758. In Germany, the
almanacs of the eighteenth century included poems by authors. The almanacs printed in the
United States from 1835-1856 were called “ Davy Crockett” almanacs. They were different from
other almanacs, as they had many long tales.
