Get ready--because the world's oldest puzzle organization is about to put your wits to the test All of the cryptograms here are meant for the sharp of mind and brave of heart. With no concessions to the less than skilled, every puzzle uses weird words, strange letter combinations, and tricky syntax. The highly unusual has been sought out: for example, some of the puzzles feature quite a few words that end in O--a very rare occurrence. And, the answers are wild, too
I loved this book! I have been working cryptograms for years and found this book to be "something wonderfully different". {One is an entire sentence with nothing but two letter words.} I had difficulty with some of them until I purchased 'The Cryptogram Dictionary' by Lloyd MacCallum. This would certainly have helped the two reviewers who gave it 1 and 2 stars, although I do have to agree that it would have helped if the print had been larger.
Excellent!
