Excerpt from Foreign Agriculture, Vol. 13: January 1949 The Geography is approximately 10 x 14 inches in size. It consists of 74 pages, including text and 63 illustrations, of which 15 are colored maps. Five of the colored maps show such physical factors as vegetation, soils, relief, annual rainfall, and length of growing season. The nine international trade maps are reproduced in red and black, and one population map is in black and green. It is not possible to reproduce a large number of illustrations in this magazine or tosshow the maps in color. Illustrating a single subject and let them indicate the general type of illustrations that appear in the volume. Wheat has been used for this purpose since grains are significant ln the European food supply and wheat IS the principal bread grain.
