Publisher's Synopsis
This book series was created in celebration of birthdays. We all love our birthday and take serious ownership of 'our' date. Most people have a keen interest in who else was born on that day and what events tipped world history in one direction or another. Here is a compendium of hundreds of events - births and deaths of people who left a visible footprint on history, wars and cataclysms that changed the course of man's path through the centuries, for sure. But also included are many of those smaller events...like, the now-famous "Conch Republic" celebrating the free spirit of the Florida Keys was created on April 23, 1982.
