"Living room" pre-dates Bok
I've removed the claim from the lede that he "coined" the term "living room". It might be reasonable to report that some people give him such credit, but it should not be repeated as fact, as earlier examples of the term are easy to come by. For instance,
this one dated 1851, several years before Bok was born. -
