Continuing our new and regular feature here at Historical Fiction.
Each Friday we will publish an historical fact based upon the date. Each fact will be accompanied by a book(s) title and perhaps a review or other snippet.
7th February 1935 ~ The popular and classic board game, Monopoly was invented this day in 1935. The book to accompany today's fact is Do Not Pass Go by Tim Moore
Whilst this book is not a historical fiction it does, in addition to being very funny give historical facts about the locations named on the traditional board game.
Anyone for Monopoly?
I have not played for years. Thanks for the info on the book.
