If you're interested in how a puzzle constructor gets published in the New York Times, this is the book for you. If you enjoy solving crosswords and have a hidden desire to try solving some puzzles that never made it past the cutting room floor, this is the book for you. And, if you'd like to know more about Will Shortz, the New York Times puzzle editor, NPR's puzzle master and close to omnipotent in the eyes of at least one crossword constructor, this is the book for you.
"I hope you enjoy this inside look at how crosswords get made. And as a bonus, you get more than 60 puzzles - the ones that made it [into the Times] and the ones that didn't - to solve!"
