Theme-A-Crostics: Later Classics - Paperback

by Alan F. McCrea (Author)

In this volume we address classic fiction of the English language from the 19th to early 20th century. The puzzles comprise a virtual 50-50 split between authors from the United Kingdom and those from North America. Several selections stem from collections of short stories, but most are from full-length novels including a couple of westerns, some historical fiction, and some that will take you back to your youth.

Accompanying the solution to each of the 40 puzzles is a short description of the work, some biographical information about the author, and where to find more detail - an appropriate add-on to the usual challenging fun for fans of acrostics.
