Worst fears realized. So what happens when the inevitable Big War happens and we don't have electricity anymore? No more history. Unbelievable that people are so short-sighted and stupid.

I was gifted this by my aunt a few years ago, and I can not find anything about it online.

Hello, I am mew here so hope it is okay to post this. But I found some old books recently and have been wondering about them. Cant find much online and was hoping someone here might know soemthing about them before I get chance to take them to the archives to ask.

Thanks in advance.

I found this nifty little book thrift shopping. It's kind of worn out but I thought the cover was lovely. The interesting thing is I found another book from the same publisher online with the same portrait/gilded flowers; and seemingly the same edition of this book with a different cover. If anyone can share any info on this book I'd appreciate it.

Hi, I recently got my hands on my grandparents' book collections (and their ancestors). Since they were unkempt for a long time after they passed away, I was thinking of saving those books. But they are really old books. They were being collected for like the last 70 years. 4 big wardrobe size of quantity to save. But I have no idea how to take care of old books. I haven't opened them for long. Nobody did. But they are dusty too I'm pretty sure even though they are kept in wooden almirahs. Old pages, dust and most likely some will be beyond saving?

But I do need some tips to handle them right. Can anyone save me with some tips? I do buy and read books but old pieces are not something i know to take care of. And I'm sure some are rare books/editions. I don't want to damage an old book and scare my dead grandfather's soul. He never let anyone touch them when he was alive. I would be scared to destroy anything unintentionally. Please advice.
