The publishers and editors of the Cross Word Puzzle Books wish to
record the debt of all Cross Word fans to The New York World for its
pioneer work in the field. Cross Word Puzzles have been run in the
Sunday World for over twenty years and their present nation-wide vogue
had its origin in and received its greatest impetus from the Puzzle
Page of the Sunday World Magazine. The fifty cross word puzzles in this
book are all entirely new and have never been printed before in any
publication.
