History from Rita Nani.....
Nishan
Grand jejebapa who was science graduate also had written many Odia books for school children n Botany and Zoology. They are lucid with perfect drawings and so simplified. His collection of the file of various leaves collected from various forests of the world is with me.
I will be able to share once I go back to Canada. It is in a storage. The leaves are so well preserved. And tagged and named.
He was no Ordinary man.
He was an Encyclopaedia.
Except for those 2 diaries and 2 books and the file rest all I have given to Ananda dada before leaving India.
Book of Knowledge volumes, Countries of the world, English classics etc.
And for everybody’s info those were not bought from the streets of Chennai or calculate... they were leather bound authentic editions bought from London of 1930s .. ore independence time. Those are treasure troves. Priceless collections.
They were shipped to Madras and with what difficulty they would have been transported to Parlakhimundi.. well preserved and well maintained in wooden cupboards I leave all that to everyone ‘s imagination. 📗📘📙📚
