Synopsis
A brand new edition, the 12th, of the essential reference book for all crossword addicts. The words are arranged within seven mini-dictionaries in word lengths of two to eight letters, revealing the answers to a tricky clue at a glance. This unique format, combined with the dictionary's updated reference sections, including prime ministers and presidents, the zodiac and the Bible, the Classical world, astronomy, geography, and more, guides the reader straight to the information needed to complete the puzzle. The first ever crossword was published in 1913 and Colonel Hill's first crossword dictionary was published in 1920. It has been in print for more than 70 years, and is still an indispensable addition to the puzzle-solver's shelf.
