Food Supplies in Peace and War

Abstract

SIR HENRY REW has the happy and unusual faculty of making statistics interesting; indeed, the only time when he is less interesting than usual is when he is quoting fewer figures. In this little book he has brought together the vital statistics of British food supplies and set them out: they tell their own tale so plainly that even the ordinary non-statistical person can understand.

Food Supplies in Peace and War.

By Sir R. Henry Rew. Pp. vii + 183. (London: Longmans, Green, and Co., 1920.) Price 6s. 6d. net.
