  This pack contains six complete Victorian and Edwardian board games, including counters and dice in a box packaged with the book. Before the days of Scrabble and Monopoly, these games had very simple rules but the appeal came from the boards themselves, depicting the popular interests and trends of the age in detail. Games such as The Wonders of the Deep , A Trip to Mars and A Trip to the Zoo with Daddy became a reflection of the time they were produced. Each game board includes an introduction on the game's origin and the full rules.
