caption: Commemorating 100 years of seasonal firsts and favorites, this merry little volume celebrates the wonders of Christmas past. Year by year, revisit the familiar movies songs, events, traditions, and toys that take you ``back to the day,'' evoked in classic and campy photos. Here are poignant moments inspired by the spirit of Christmas, such as the 1914 Christmas truce, when German and Allied soldiers emerged from their trenches on the western front to shake hands and exchange gifts; and the Christmas message from Apollo 8 astronauts as they orbit the moon in 1968. From the earliest electric train sets humming under the tree to fledgling Atari video games, from sharing the compelling messages from It's a Wonderful Life or Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer to grooving to Winter Wonderland or Santa Baby, the most special time of year of your childhood comes to life in this fun and festive tribute.
