By Eleanor Howard Dean

Book Overview

Charades of Nineteen Six and Seven is a book written by Eleanor Howard Dean and first published in 1907. The book is a collection of charades, a popular word game in the 19th and early 20th centuries, which involves guessing a word or phrase based on a series of clues or actions. The charades in this book are set in the years 1906 and 1907, and each one is presented in the form of a short story or poem. The clues are often cleverly disguised and require a good knowledge of popular culture and current events of the time. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing charades for adults and the second part containing charades for children. The charades for children are simpler and more straightforward than those for adults, but still require some knowledge of the time period in which they were written.Overall, Charades of Nineteen Six and Seven is an entertaining and challenging collection of word games that provides a glimpse into the popular culture and current events of the early 20th century. It is a great book for anyone who enjoys word games or is interested in the history of popular culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
