Synopsis

The Week-End Problems Book contains hundreds, even thousands, of hours of stimulating puzzlement, with time tests, crosswords, and card problems among many others. It is the perfect companion for rainy weekend afternoons. In selecting these puzzles, Hubert Phillips aimed to 'provide maximum entertainment' and they are sure to test even the most astute of 21st-century minds (there is a complete set of solutions for those who find some of the problems a little too taxing).
