Product description

In this captivating and engaging journey, the book explores the rich history behind one of the most celebrated festive seasons. From ancient Midwinter rituals and the festivals of Sol Invictus to Constantine’s creation of a Christian holiday and the medieval traditions of ‘misrule,’ the period around the solstice has always been a time for communal celebration. As these festive customs evolved across the globe, this book reveals the deeper story behind the glitz and joy, highlighting why Christmas has endured and continues to hold significance for us today, even amidst modern commercialism.
