Sobre este artículo
Sacramento, California: Office of Civil Defense, 1952. Very good. Some chipping/short tears, toning, sunning.. A Cold War-era publication from the State of California Office of Civil Defense, guiding residents in how to stockpile and ration food in the event of a nuclear attack: "If there is an atomic attack on our cities there will be immediate disruption of food. Undamaged stocks in retail and wholesale will be required for emergency feeding of the homeless ... As part of your personal Civil Defense planning you should have on hand at least a three-day supply of foods" (front cover). Includes lists of recommended foods to have on hand (e.g. canned fruits and vegetables); a chart showing which foods are best to have on hand depending on fuel availability; and several sample menus, divided again into sections depending on fuel/water availability. Also includes tips such as "use airtight containers" and to always "date your packages".
