Anotace knihy

'This War is a Food War'...In 1941 Lord Woolton, Minister for Food, was determined that the Garden Front would save England: 'Dig for Victory' was the slogan, digging for dinner the reality. With food imports dwindling the number of allotments grew, millions opted to 'Spend an Hour with a Hoe' instead of an hour in a queue, and the upper-classes turned lawns, tennis courts and stately gardens over to agriculture. The national diet was transformed, with Swedes grown in the place of oranges and hapless children sucking on carrot lollies; evacuees grew their own meals and bomb-sites sprouted farms; vegetables ruled the airwaves with Mr Middleton's 'In Your Garden'; sweet peas became known as Spitfires and potatoes as Home Guard. This is a fully illustrated look at when gardening saved Britain.
