Project Gutenberg has the two Rootabaga books published by Carl Sandburg in the 1920s. Both books were illustrated by Maud and Miska Petersham. I remember hearing about these books when I visited Carl Sandburg’s last home in North Carolina with my daughter in 2003…but didn’t encounter them again until this year. Enjoy the text and the illustrations!
Twenty more books were added to my botanical print eBook collection in May – all are available for browsing on Internet Archive. 19 of the books are a continuation of the Carnivorous Plant Newsletters; there are 4 volumes per year so this month includes 2008 to 2012; I’ll continue browsing this periodical in June.
My list of eBotanical Prints books now totals 3,363 eBooks I’ve browsed over the years. The whole list can be accessed here.

Internet Archive has digitized versions of many Life Magazines. I have been browsing through them – slowly since there was an issue for each week. As I looked at the issues from 1946, I noticed a lot about veterans returning, application of technology from the war applied to civilian purposes, and tragedies of famine in places that World War II ravaged. There were hotel fires and flash floods…slums in cities – photography depicting the peace time news.

8 volumes of Bothalia, a scientific journal from the National Herbarium at the University of South Africa

Internet Archive has digitized versions of many Life Magazines. I have been browsing through them – slowly since there was an issue for each week. As I looked at the issues from 1943, the ads that almost always have a linkage to the war stand out. Every issue had one or more articles about the war too. The magazine depicted a country pulling hard to support the military and the war effort.
Internet Archive has digitized versions of many Life Magazines. I have been browsing through them – slowly since there was an issue for each week. As I looked at the issues from 1941, I thought about the buildup of war activities in the US and then Pearl Harbor occurring in December. The US did not formally enter the war until December 11th but it is obvious from the pictures Life published that people were very aware of what was happening and the US involvement too. And there were still other aspects of life that continued on – iceboats, Coca-Cola, glass food packaging, the New York skyline.

The oldest is from 1642 An album of botanical studies and represented by the sample image at row 3, column 2 in the mosaic. The most recent is from 2023 The Beauty of The Flower: The Art and Science of Botanical Illustration which Is a good reference for the history of botanical prints.

Internet Archive has digitized versions of many Life Magazines. I have been browsing through them – slowly since there was an issue for each week. As I looked at the issues from 1940, I thought about my parents in elementary school then and becoming more aware of the war as they got older. Their families were probably listening to the radio but many of the reports must have seemed very far away, and it is unlikely that saw the pictures in Life Magazine.

I browsed 49 months of The Craftsman magazine from the early 1900s (December 1903 – December 1907) back in January. They are available from The University of Wisconsin-Madison digital library and are a way to understand the way people were living at the time – a time when my grandparents were born. Some of the styles look “heavy” by today’s standards…but they were built to last from daily use. Some would still fit into a home today.

I browsed 36 children’s books in February – published in the Soviet Union during the 1980s. Some were clearly for export – in Hindi or English or Tamil or Bengali or Kannada. The text was not the draw for me; I was browsing for the illustrations. I’ve always enjoyed the artwork in books intended for children. It entices young readers…often colorful, sometimes whimsical. The books are freely available on Internet Archive. Enjoy a sample image from each below(click on the image to see a larger version)….then follow the link see more of the book!
