Story of the Months and Days

How familiar to us are the names of the months, and the days of the week, and yet how few of us know to whom we owe these names or what a wealth of meaning they possess. They have come to us from the past, from the time when people worshiped many gods and explained the wonders of nature in their own simple way. The book is the only one of its nature providing a glimpse into the mystical, and sometimes mysterious, nature of the names of the months and days and the significance they carry.
