Dickens and His Secret Bookshelf Door
Charles Dickens had a hidden door in his study disguised as a bookshelf with fake books bearing humorous titles he invented, like 'Cats' Lives' in nine volumes.
Is this true or false?
Explanation:
True! At Gad's Hill Place, Dickens hid a door behind sham book spines with titles like 'Cats' Lives' in nine volumes and 'Hansard's Guide to Refreshing Sleep.' They still exist at the Dickens Museum.
