Stories Behind Great Traditions of Christmas by Ace Collins
I picked this up Saturday at Waldenbooks because I had a 15 percent off coupon and it looked interesting. It actually has several tidbits I hadn't heard before (the obsessive care in lighting the Yule log and the watch kept over it), and is generally factual except for a couple of things (Alastair Sim's version of A Christmas Carol for instance, is from 1951, not 1957).
I'm just wondering where Collins lives where mistletoe has red berries. He mentions this at least twice...
