防止表格环境的内容超出页面范围

考虑代码生成的两列表格环境的正确内容

    \documentclass{book}

    \begin{document}
    \thispagestyle{empty}
    \Large

    \begin{tabular}{l l} 
    January: & Some content - second column; \, Why is this running off the page? \, Victories 41, defeats 4. \\ 
    & A statement of the next line. \, Second statement. \\
    & \\
    
    February: & Some content - second column; \, would like to right-justify this column. \, Victories 41, defeats 4. \\ 
    &  A statement of the next line. \, Second statement. \\
    & \\
    
    March: & Some content - second column; \, Why is this running off the page? \, Victories 41, defeats 4. \\ 
    &  A statement of the next line. \, Second statement.
    \end{tabular}
    \end{document}

问题：我该如何防止行尾溢出？更具体地说，当文本宽度达到一定范围（或达到某个指定宽度）时，如何自动强制换行；并且第二列的后续内容也对齐？

谢谢。

使用tabularx：

在此处输入图片描述

\documentclass{book}

\usepackage{tabularx}
%\usepackage{showframe}% To see the page layout

\begin{document}

\thispagestyle{empty}

\Large

\noindent
\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{l X} 
January: & Some content - second column; Why is this running off the page? Victories 41, defeats 4. \\ 
& A statement of the next line. Second statement. \\
& \\
February: & Some content - second column; would like to right-justify this column. Victories 41, defeats 4. \\ 
&  A statement of the next line. Second statement. \\
& \\
March: & Some content - second column; Why is this running off the page? Victories 41, defeats 4. \\ 
&  A statement of the next line. Second statement.
\end{tabularx}

\end{document}

您可以调整列分隔并（例如）将其用作@{} l X @{}列规范。请注意，在表格内设置此项将不允许正确跨页边界（垂直）分页。

或者（并且更好，因为完全支持分页）使用列表（如description）：

在此处输入图片描述

\documentclass{book}

\usepackage{enumitem}
%\usepackage{showframe}% To show the document layout

\begin{document}

\thispagestyle{empty}

\Large

\begin{description}[leftmargin=5em,labelwidth=5em,labelsep=0pt,font=\mdseries]
  \item[January:] Some content - second column; Why is this running off the page? Victories 41, defeats 4. \par 
    A statement of the next line. Second statement.

  \item[February:] Some content - second column; would like to right-justify this column. Victories 41, defeats 4. \par
    A statement of the next line. Second statement.

  \item[March:] Some content - second column; Why is this running off the page? Victories 41, defeats 4. \par
    A statement of the next line. Second statement.
\end{description}

\end{document}
