Synopsis
At last! A crossword dictionary with clues you can use! Based on a massive analysis of the words that appear most frequently in American crosswords, puzzle editors Stan Newman and Dan Stark have painstakingly -- one by one -- selected the 150,000 most important clues for these words. Check it out for yourself.  Open Square One and you'll notice the difference right away.  You'll not only find synonym-type clues, but also fill-in-the-blanks, colloquial phrases, abbreviations, and the "modern" clues (like movies, music, TV, sports, brand names, etc.) so prevalent in today's crosswords, that no other crossword dictionary has ever included before. Among the thousands of popular crossword clues that can be answered only by The New York Times Square One Crossword Dictionary are: FDR's successor (3 letters, page 150) Skater Lipinski (4 letters, page 255) "Diana" singer (4 letters, page 114) Traffic sign (5 letters, page 458) "Shakespeare in __" (4 letters, page 396) Maytag rival (5 letters, page 275) "The Crucible" setting (5 letters, page 100) Users of crossword dictionaries are the most demanding of reference-book users.  They want the answer to a particular clue in a particular crossword, and they want it NOW. If this sounds like you, or your favorite puzzle fan, you need The New York Times Square One Crossword Dictionary---America's most useful crossword dictionary by far for the new millennium.

    The book arrived quickly and in good condition. It was sealed in plastic and packaged well. The seller took a while to get back to me when I first messaged them, but did ultimately reply. I would buy from this seller again.

  • Mom Loves It!

    My Mother is a avid crossword puzzler! Her copy was pretty much in shreds! She just had to have this exact book, since she has had many, but none to match it! I was just so glad to have found it.

  • Excellent deal.

    Not as many words as newer versions, but still more than satisfactory for the price.
