[GWL]: Victory Garden

As I was rearranging my books today I came across an old book printed in 1945.  The title is, The New Garden Encyclopedia, Victory Garden Edition.  The editor is E. L. D. Seymour and it was published in New York by Wm. H. Wise & Co.  The Victory Garden supplement was 30 pages in length with illustrations reproduced from the Victory Garden Department, Office of Civilian Defense, of the Chicago Metropolitan Area, George T. Donoghue, Director.  One other illustration was of a 100 by 110 ft. vegetable and small gruit garden in the northeastern states adapted from New York State, 1942 Victory Garden Leaflet No. 2.
 
The history of the program, "It was, however, a Government sponsored and directed movement that came into being as a result of the National Defense Gardening Conference held in Washington in December, 1941."
 
If anyone wishes for more information, write to me off the list.
