On the Shelf.....
Read the suspenseful, and often hilarious, story about the invention, production
and marketing of the Anti-Monopoly board game, and how a dedicated crew of
amateurs, led by an egghead professor, had to take on America's Big Business.
Cheer on the little guys, as their defense against a legal assault by a big
corporation blows the lid of the secret history of Monopoly. Find out how
they uncovered the scandals of its real-world monopolization.
Written by the man who uncovered the truth, this no holds barred exposé tells:
-
How
a woman invented Monopoly and never got credit for it.
-
How
she was used, betrayed, and discarded by Parker Brothers
-
How
the game became a widely played public domain folk game like chess
-
How
it was played on home-made boards for twenty-five years
-
How
some Atlantic City Quaker teachers turned it into Monopoly®
-
How
it was stolen from the Quakers and the public domain with a fraudulent patent
and a vanished copyright
-
How
and why Parker Brothers concocted a bogus Monopoly history which became an
American legend
-
How Monopoly-gate was covered up with a host of tricks
including laundering deals, perjury, and subornation of perjury And how all
this produced a billion dollars of monopoly profits and not in Monopoly
money either.
