| Our featured Quilter's Quest book, "Cork Wars," involves three families in World War II caught up in immigration, spies and cork. It’s a story about how cork—from cork oak forests around the Mediterranean—was a big deal in the mid-20th century. When Germany cut supplies with the Atlantic blockade, cork companies and their workers got embroiled in a life-and-death geopolitical struggle. What began as a trade in bark and bottle caps quickly spun into a global drama with sabotage espionage, and profiteering. Written by Professor, David A. Taylor Cork is the bark of trees. It keeps regenerating after being removed. It played a big part in WWII and Baltimore’s part in it. The best is grown in Portugal and Spain. |
