A book from Leningrad and snippets

[Evgeni M]

Here is a very interesting book about wild edible plants from 1942 printed in Leningrad. It discusses the importance of wild edible plants for the citizens of Leningrad, a very interesting piece of evidence that shows how dire the situation with food supply was for the citizens. Remarkable is the fact that scientific institutions were still working and contributing what they could.



In the same staple of books there were also snippets from the local newspaper.
