The Canterbury Puzzles Book
"An extremely ingenious book which abounds in problems that will keep the reader busy for hours."--Manchester Guardian One of England's greatest inventors of mathematical puzzles, Henry Dudeney (1847-1930) had a talent for finding solutions to problems that seemed unsolvable.
