I remember using the Barsa[0] encyclopedia as a source for homework. We went to my grandfather's house where this imposing collection of red and gold hard cover books rested at the higher shelf. Even an adult had to get on a chair to reach there. I'm pretty sure is still there almost as a trophy or decoration piece. It's probably useless nowadays and I'm pretty sure it still lists the Soviet Union and Rhodesia as countries. Back when I've used those books they already had the smell of old books. And yes I would love to have those books for myself. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barsa_(encyclopedia) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barsa_(encyclopedia)
