Extremely Useful

I purchased this purely and simply to help with that inevitable last crossword clue that stares back at you off the page, as much as to say you can think till the cows come home but you are not going to get the answer. This book is the ideal solution for that situation. No, it does not have everything you may need to know in it, that would be impossible, unless the book was too heavy to lift. But funnily enough, it does have most things. It is well laid out in a style that makes finding what you want relatively easy. Once you have it you realise it is useful for far more things than crosswords. The answers to question posed in other books or on television or radio. Questions asked by children or grandchildren, it uses are endless and I find that once you have read something, as opposed to hearing it on the radio or television you tend to remember it better. I don't know why this should be, but it seems to work for me.
