More than 11,000 cross-indexed names across 100 categories.

Crossword puzzles are more popular -- and more complex -- than ever. Answers to those vexing clues relating to names are seldom found in crossword puzzle dictionaries. Avid solver Terry Falconer now fills this significant gap for the serious crossword puzzle fan.

Among the categories covered are:

  • Authors, playwrights, composers and cartoonists
  • Aviators and astronomers
  • Biologists, mathematicians and inventors
  • Musicians, singers and composers

  • Wartime heroes and Nobel Peace laureates and many, many others.

Indexed alphabetically by first name, last name and category, this big, user-friendly guide is the perfect resource for crossword puzzle solvers.
