Why it works
The themes are objects and rituals, not decades: The Knife Grinder’s Bell, The Home Permanent, The Cedar Chest, A Volume Every Month. Nobody has to be good at dates to have something to say about a paperboy’s aim. All 20 are American everyday life, and every word on each list is placed and checked by our own software.
Made for: A solver who likes the old words, a visit with a parent or grandparent, and discussion groups at senior centers.
