THE OFFICIAL ASSOCIATED PRESS ALMANAC 1973 [Paperback] Laurence Urdang

Description

Paperback cover has some wear and tear. Pages are clean and the binding is secure.
This 1973 edition of The Official Associated Press Almanac is a fascinating time capsule from a pivotal year in American history. Published at the height of the Watergate scandal, this reference work captures the nation’s political and cultural landscape with detailed reporting on the unfolding crisis that would ultimately lead to President Nixon’s resignation. Beyond Watergate, the almanac offers a comprehensive overview of 1972’s major events, from the Munich Olympics tragedy to the groundbreaking Apollo 17 lunar mission. For collectors, this volume holds particular significance as one of the last pre-Internet reference books, meticulously compiled by editors before the Digital Age transformed how information is gathered and disseminated. Though showing its age with the worn cover, the book’s clean pages and sturdy binding ensure its longevity as an indispensable primary source for researchers, historians, and anyone seeking an unvarnished record of a watershed year.
