A twelve-stage sleigh ride through the best, worst, strangest and funniest parts of Christmas.

With cultural icons saluted, national habits dissected and personal reminiscences from those who've eaten all the mince pies and lived to tell the tale.

The essential Christmas stocking filler for anyone who's ever spent their christmas on a deflating air bed in their parents' spare room, wedged up against the washing machine come Christmas Eve and wondering why this Christmas, just like every year, doesn't look like the ones on the telly.

Rhodri Marsden's exploration of cultural customs and family traditions during the festive season is both humorous and insightful. His essays delve into the social science behind our Christmas activities, making A Very British Christmas a top pick for those interested in popular culture and regional variations of the holiday.

For fans of Rob Temple (Born to be Mild), Brian Bilston (And So This is Christmas), David Jason (The Twelve Dels of Christmas), Richard Littler (The Scarfolk Annual), and Greg Wise (Last Christmas).
