The Garden Of Victory

When food was scarce during World Wars, there was an urge for people to grow their crops wherever they could. The Victory Gardens were vegetable, fruit, and herb gardens planted at private residences and public parks during World War I and II. This book sets the context for the Victory Gardens: how they were born, developed and used. Revisiting the past broadens our perspective and understanding of the present, as well as being an inspiration for the future, so new Victory Gardens can root their way.
