Here is a complete gathering of more than 500 Gallup Poll reports for the year 2013. A seminal reference, it is home to an abundance of interesting data covering topics such as patriotism, personal wealth, foreign sympathies, optimism, job engagement, presidential approval, and much more. . . .As the entirety of the Gallup Poll reports date back to 1935, it would be fascinating to compare this volume with prior volumes. Users would be able to discern the trends and sharp detours in public opinion throughout the decades. Supplementary information includes a 2013 chronology, explanations of Gallup economic indexes, and a volume index particularly relevant in terms of identifying the many topics broached by the polls.
