This book offers a refreshing approach to solving the crossword puzzle: the Canadian approach. Each of its 76 daily-sized crosswords has a distinct made-in-Canada flavour.
Barbara Olson's love of words has led her to earn a degree in French Translation, to write a newspaper column on the joys and pitfalls of the English language, and most recently, to construct crossword puzzles. Her puzzles have appeared in Saturday Night Magazine, The Toronto Sun, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, and have been syndicated to hundreds of web sites and publications across the continent. She is committed to integrating Canadian culture into crossword puzzles and her contribution to this book is a stride towards achieving that goal. Barbara lives in Nelson, BC.
