The American Heritage Crossword Puzzle Dictionary is for lovers of crosswords of all kinds. It contains an enormous number of words and phrases that provide the user with over 230,000 possible solutions to crossword clues. As well as including synonyms for thousands of words, it includes wide-ranging reference lists that group together words usually found only in encyclopedias. The user will find, for example, lists of people (such as actors, US presidents, Nobel prize winners, and poets), geographical lists (such as rivers, cities, mountains, and lakes), lists of technical terms (such as printing terms, musical terms, and scientific terms), lists from natural history (such as flowers and trees), lists from art and culture (such as singers, novels, operas, paintings), lists from belief and religion (such as Biblical characters, gods and goddesses) and lists from sports (such as baseball players, boxers, and races). All of the words in this dictionary have been carefully categorized by topic or meaning to be presented in over 15,000 one-stop entries that combine both synonym lists and reference lists. The American Heritage Crossword Puzzle Dictionary can be used on its own, or alongside a standard dictionary, and is an ideal companion to The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language. It will help you find solutions that are evading you, and also help you meet the intellectual challenges set by the cruciverbalists in our daily and Sunday newspapers. Seller Inventory # 10678
