Book On George Washington Carver By Tonya Bolden

 


        I found a book on the life of George Washington Carver (Wikipedia link). It was not overly detailed but it does talk about his life and accomplishments. I think there are some really nice illustrations and photos in it. 

        I think it is great for those who want to learn about George Washington Carver but might not have a lot of time to read about him or just have a passing interest in him. 

        It was an easy read and it was also informative. It could lead someone to read more about him. I have an ebook on him that has more details about his life (subject of another post / blog). 

        I found it at the Thriftbooks (they have a lot of books at great prices) for a great price (not many left at the site - just click on the link). They have other books (link on a search using his name) on him too. 



Even the back of it is really nice. It has a photo of George Washington Carver. 

        One can also get it at Amazon (Amazon link). They have a pretty good price for it too. There are links there to other books on him.

Tortola - Fantasy Banknotes

Image
  Currently I am into fantasy banknotes; especially ones with a picture of Queen Elizabeth the 2nd on them (it would be neat to see some with Lady Di on them but have not found them, yet). I found these on eBay with the search words ' fantasy banknotes ' (some of them were kind of 'revealing').  This one is Tortola . I thought it was made up but it seems it does exist. I don't know if they have their own banknotes but it would be cool if they looked like these. I think these look and feel like current European banknotes. I think they are really well done. I think these are really well done. One can see a really nice picture of Queen Elizabeth the 2nd on them. It is one of the reasons I got them. The other is that it was reasonably priced; i.e.., I could afford them. I believe this is the front of the banknotes. Here are the back of the banknotes. I think it looks really nice. I think it is very well done.  There are other sites that sell fantasy banknotes. I have a

Aldabra Islands - Fantasy Banknotes

Image
I have found some 'fantasy banknotes' on the internet; some of which is on eBay . The ones that are picture below are the ones I bought at eBay at a good price.    I think they are way cool and very well done. This is one of them. It is from the Aldabra Islands. I think they are very well made. They feel like European banknotes but they are 'fantasy' ones' - for a country - IIRC - that does not exist but made for fun. It does seem that the islands do exist; Aldabra Islands .  It is the two sets of the same banknotes. The first one is the front and the second one is the backs.  These two are the same as the first two but came separately. I think they are really neat. One of the reasons I got them is because they feature Queen Elizabeth the 2nd on them. I think this makes them really cool. I got them from a seller on eBay . I did a search using ' fantasy banknotes ' and it was one of the results. There was a great number of fantasy banknotes there.

Barbuda - Fantasy Banknotes

Image
  I think that I might have gotten carried away; especially on fantasy banknotes that have a picture of Queen Elizabeth the 2nd on them. I have found some like this on eBay .  One of these are the Barbuda fantasy banknotes. I think they are really cool looking and look so real; like European ones that they have now. I thought it was a place that didn't exist but it seems that it does; Barbuda . I do not know if they have their own money but it would be cool if it looked like this.  I think it looks really neat. I like how it has a picture of Queen Elizabeth the 2nd on them. It is one of the reasons I got them. I think this is the front of them.  I believe this is the bank of them. It feels like the current banknotes from Europe.  I got them from eBay using the search words ' fantasy banknotes '. There was a lot of fantasy banknotes there (some were rather revealing).  There are websites that carry fantasy banknotes. I have some of them listed in my post about Aldabra Islan
