One of the most original travel books I've read: following the history of the iconic Monopoly streets of London. A fascinating insight into the history of the capital by tracking the Browns, Oranges, Light Blues, Yellows, Reds, Dark Pinks, Greens, Dark Blues and not to mention the stations and the utility companies.

Yes, the research is easily accessible but the production of the final book and adventure is well thought through and very readable. I was brought up on Monopoly and whilst Moore appears to have had a capitalist and cut throat approach to the game, for me of was something to respect and enjoy for what it was. I can well understand the delight in finding out factual nuggets about each location and would expect this adventure would be one many wishes they'd thought of too.

Take a Chance with one ;)
