Fagots for the fireside : one hundred and fifty games and amusements for evenings at home and social parties
Fagots for the Fireside is an 1894 Boston and New York book of parlour games and amusements for evenings at home and social parties, written by Lucretia P. Hale for American families and gatherings. Its pictures are plain pen-and-ink line drawings of simple figures, playing cards and a hanging puppet frame, giving a designer a clear, naive, diagrammatic vocabulary for game instructions.
