Perhaps this article should describe 18th and 18th century American farmers' almanacs in general, with a pointer to The Old Farmer's Alamanac, and also mentions competing alamanacs, such as the "Farmer's Alamanac".

[edit] Agreed
[edit] Confusion
Did a little research on "the" farmer's almanac. There appears to be two competing almanacs that both claim to be very accurate in there prediction of future weather patterns. Have seen only one news article that even mentions that there is an "old farmer's almanac" and a "farmer's almanac". Both have web sites, both are books you can buy. I found various news organizations that had articles mentioning the annual debuts of each publication and each almanac's predictions of future weather. Very weird. It is like there are two different universes. One with one almanac and one with another and neither universes aware that others exist.
