Designed as an A-Z source of inspiration to crossword puzzlers and other word-game enthusiasts, this dictionary offers ways into the clue, gives quick signposts and spurs to further thought rather then actually providing full answers. It is the result of the compiler's analysis over 25 years of some 300,000 crossword clues. It contains over 15,000 headwords and over 175,000 entries plus synonyms, associated word puns and other play on words. There is also cross-referencing and general advice on solving cryptic clues.
