This pocket reference book gives over 54,000 solution words, specially chosen to cover the subject areas that are met with most frequently in puzzles and crosswords. The words are arranged, in one alphabetical listing, by the number of letters they contain, so the user can go straight to all the possible clue answers in one place. Every clue word is followed by an italic label, printed in red for clarity, that shows the subject area, or areas, that it relates to. The subject areas are comprehensive and include encyclopedic items, such as rivers and seas, and military leaders, as well as basic lists such as animals, music, and weather.
