Good value

Compelling content

  • Heavy but wordy.

    Compelling content? Not really, it's for crossword crazies likw my wife and I. As a hardcover it is heavy but superior at finding that right word. I order the soft cover Andrew Swanfeldt, which I've used for years. Love 'em both but I think Garcia Schaffer might be a little better. My wife thinks so anyway. You won't go wrong with either one.

  • Great Bargain

    This is a very useful and comprehensive crossword puzzle dictionary. I recommend purchasing the hard cover edition as opposed to the soft cover edition for frequent research. :)

  • Stronger than paperback.

    So glad I decided to get the hardback. It has all the content of paperback and will last longer.
