What do such celebrities as actor Dustin Hoffman, radio host Garrison Keillor, former Vice President Dan Quayle, and writer Ayn Rand have in common? They're all quoted in cryptograms! Each celebrity's words appear on his or her birthday, and there's a quotation for every day of the year. There are two other sections to help "clue" you into the puzzles. Once you've unraveled the mystery, you'll know director Cecile B. De Mille's thoughts on filmmaking; Michael Jordan's feelings about hard work; attorney Clarence Darrow's view of the presidency; food writer James Beard's sly comments on cannibalism; Harry Truman's distinction between recession and depression; David Byrne's and Bono's opinions on music; and Marilyn Monroe's downbeat description of Hollywood. Every cryptogram has a different code, of course, so you'll have to tackle each one separately!

This review is from: 365 Celebrity Crypto-Quotes (Spiral-bound)
I loved this book. The cryptos are great for beginners. Not only are the cryptos fun to do, the quotes are fun to read. I highly recommend this book and I hope that the author writes another book because the year is almost over.

Caution! These cryptograms were pulled from another puzzle book called "Puzzles for a Super-Mind Workout." I'm in the midst of doing these very same puzzles from the other book. These are the exact same puzzles with another title.
Oh yes, the cryptograms are great--funny, interesting, quotable. You'll enjoy. Just don't buy this book if you've done the ones from the other book.
