Synopsis

Inaugural Acrostics contains puzzles built around the Inaugural Addresses of the U.S. Presidents, from Washington through to Trump. The puzzles and their quotes open a window into the past and the issues and themes that were paramount for each President in his time. Because the authors are known, these are a bit non-traditional as an acrostic theme, with the balance being more challenging clues to find the solution. Many of the clues pull from Presidential quotes and other themes of Americana. The difficulty is variable per puzzle and will challenge puzzlers with a variety of clue types and some multi-word answers.

À propos de l'auteur

Dolphins. It's all about the dolphins. If Steven could speak Dolphin, he would - click, click, squeak. He is a licensed dolphin and porpoise rider and has performed exhibitions throughout the U.S. Midwest and Kazakhstan. Dolphins became a lifelong fascination for Steven after watching Free Willy in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1993 and realizing that orcas are not dolphins. And that dolphins are mostly gray. His enchantment with water-loving mammals extends to dogs and cats as well, though he finds them unwilling to ride with him in his exhibitions. Steven had a role as an extra in Waterworld in 1995 and attended the red-carpet premiere of Barbie Dolphin Magic in 2017. When he's not riding or thinking about dolphins, he's disappointed, though he does find time to build acrostic puzzles. He is regularly disappointed with his editors, who routinely limit his dolphin-related clues to no more than 50% of each puzzle, which he's sure you noticed. Steven lives in a van down by the river.
