A Bombed Library, Kensington, London
We have a question for you: do you think it is a crime to steal books even if the library is almost completely destroyed? Well, this is what happened when Holland House, a privately-owned library, was destroyed by Germans during World War II. They bombed the library and there were only a few books left.
So, some people with still a desire to read went there and tried to get their hands on the books that were left. Maybe some people tried to sell the books because a part of the library was preserved after 1952.
