The Monopolists: Obsession, Fury, and the Scandal Behind the World's Favorite Board Game by Mary Pilon

5.0

tldr: lizzie magie (also the quakers), not charles darrow invented monopoly.

Framed around the story of a lawsuit for the game "Anti-Monopoly", this book is a interesting overview of the gilded age and progressive areas seen through the eyes of this board game's fascinating history.
