About this book

Seven magic squares nested inside a single diagram open this collection of puzzles, and the numbers in each square add to the same sum along every row, column and diagonal. A. Cyril Pearson, who also wrote on chess problems and anagrams, edited the book as a companion to The Twentieth Century Standard Puzzle Book. Pictured puzzles mixed with word play come first, followed by enigmas, charades and odds and ends, with solutions for each section at the back. An anagram riddle about an ape and an elephant serves as frontispiece.
