Nina’s Library, May 2

I’ll add three books today. None of them are novels.

How Plants Grow by Asa Gray. Copyright 1858. This is a botany for young people and common schools. Must have been used as a textbook.

A Guide Book of United States Coins by R. S. Yeoman. 1952-53.

Streams in the Desert by Mrs. Chas. Cowman. Copyright 1925, 27th printing. This is a book of messages for daily prayer time. It was very popular in its day, I guess that’s why I picked it up when I run across it. The former owner used it as sort of a dairy. Every once in a while you run across a note that says someone died today.
