Much of this book is devoted to the past, to the origin and growth of each of the 27 English festivals which have been, or are still celebrated around the country. These include the festivals of Christmas and Easter, in addition to less familiar festivals such as Rogationtide, Lammas and St. Cecilia's day. The sentiment that the author is attempting to convey, is that life would be very dull, especially for children, without recurring festivities throughout the year.
