Opis

This is a 2nd edition book, with corrections made. Cryptograms are fun to do. They are classic word games where 1 letter will stand for another throughout that puzzle. Both pattern recognition and linear thought are necessary in code breaking. This is an excellent exercise to train the mind to think using both halves of the brain. Welcome to the first volume of Political Cryptograms. These puzzles have been created for the discerning solver, and especially for those with an historical or political interest. Here you will find quotes and facts from those Presidential campaigns which were watersheds in American history, as well as quotes and facts from other key figures. Beginning with the landmark 1960 campaign between John Kennedy and Richard Nixon, each section will amuse and illuminate. You will find pungent quotes from major players and interesting facts about the people and their times. Want to hear what Dwight D. Eisenhower said about JFK? Know what role a native Comanche played in the 1972 campaign? Sharpen your pencils and your wits and join us on this voyage through Americana. And don't forget to vote The print is large (making it easy on the eyes), double-spaced (room to write your answers within the puzzle) and a line separates each puzzle.
