Excerpt from Dominoes and Dice: A Brief History of These Games With Descriptions of Their Variations and Methods of Play, Accompanied by Rules and Illustrations It might seem hazardous, therefore, to those not generally familiar with games, to introduce dominoes and dice into one's house; but, as a matter of fact, they are quite as innocent in character as cards or chess: These latter can be, and Often are, entered into.
