Product Description
This beautiful and nostalgic pictorial celebration of board games will transport readers back to a simpler time, when child’s play didn’t involve video games or computer screens of any kind. More than 100 of the best are featured, from the 19th century until today, with pictures of both the boards and the various pieces. They include Animal Crackers, which dates from 1883; Across the Continent (1888); the ever-popular children’s favorite Candyland (1938); Nurse Ames (1944); the mystery game Clue (1950); Elvis (1958); and many more. Some are well-known, others more rare, but they will surely send readers scrambling to their old toy chests to play another round.
Reader Reviews
Absolutely gorgeous photos accompany snippets of information about the games that will leave you thirsting for more (and wishing you could get your hands on some of these beauties)... if you are a board game enthusiast, that is. One only wishes the book was much, MUCH bigger (and longer).
