Description
How well do you think you know your opera? Match wits with Metropolitan Opera quiz master Father Owen Lee in forty-five opera-related puzzles, including straight-forward quizzes, anagrams, vertical patterns, crostics, and crossword puzzles. Each puzzle has a theme, such as baseball and opera, movies and opera, and operas set in Paris. Forty-three of the puzzles have been collected from Father Lee's column in The Opera Quarterly, along with two new puzzles especially created for this volume.
