1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING: These Are NOT Hard Crossword Puzzles!!!, December 30, 2005

By	Robert Slocum (STAMFORD, CT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

I was completely disappointed in this book. It is quite possible that these puzzles ran on Saturdays in 1993 and 1994, as the copyright notation indicates. They are not, however, remotely in a league with the current Saturday level of difficulty. This is deceptive advertising at its most crass. It reflects very poorly on the editor, Will Shortz (who currently edits the NYT puzzles and surely knows that what I am saying is true), on the Times itself, and on Amazon, which ought to stop selling this slim but nevertheless sleazy volume.
