I'm so sorry but the answer to question of "What book by
Charles Dickens was published on December 19, 1843" is

A Christmas Carol

A Christmas Carol
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Christmas_Carol 

"A Tale of Two Cities" was published in 1859, first appearing
in serialized form in Dicken's magazine "All the Year Round"
starting April 30, 1859 and ending in November 25, 1859.
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Tale_of_Two_Cities

That's okay, to some people all of Dicken's works look alike.

Thank you for playing.  As a consolation prize departing contestants
receive a copy of the home edition of the "TiPS Game!"

Ever read Kruger & Dunning (1999) in JPSP?
