The Puzzle Arbor Cryptogram Series

Great Lines from Great Books

120 Cryptograms

The Classics, One Letter at a Time. Every puzzle in this book is a line from a classic book, set in a simple letter code: famous first lines and last lines, Sherlock Holmes and Mr. Micawber, Jo March and Winnie-the-Pooh, The Pilgrim’s Progress and Les Misérables. Each one was checked word for word against the book itself.

The author’s name is in code too, so it can help you along. The first puzzles give you three letters to start; by the last part you’re on your own. Every answer is in the back, with the book it came from.
