About Trailblazers & Explorers Cryptograms
This is a collection of 250 large-print cryptograms, each one hiding a quote from someone who went out and explored the unknown. You decode the cipher, and the reward is the actual sentence a polar explorer or an astronaut said.
Most cryptogram books use quotes at random. This one has a point of view: the people who went first, said something worth keeping, and left the rest of us their words. Shackleton, Earhart, Armstrong, and Hillary all show up here.
It belongs to the Decode & Inspire Series, so the large print and the clean page layout are the same ones regular readers already know. Good for a history buff who has read every expedition book on the shelf and wants something to actually do.

Frequently asked questions
How many puzzles are in Trailblazers & Explorers Cryptograms?
There are 250 cryptogram puzzles in the book. Every one of them decodes to a quote from an explorer, adventurer or trailblazer. That is enough to keep a daily solver going for months.
Is this book large print?
Yes. Trailblazers & Explorers Cryptograms is a large-print book, so the cipher letters and your penciled-in answers stay readable without a magnifier. That makes it friendly for older eyes and for solving in less than ideal light.
Whose quotes are in the puzzles?
The quotes come from history's great adventurers, including Ernest Shackleton, Amelia Earhart, Neil Armstrong and Edmund Hillary, among others. Each solved puzzle gives you the explorer's actual words rather than a generic saying.
Is this a good gift for a history lover?
Yes, it is one of the better ones. It pairs the pleasure of a cryptogram with quotes from the people who explored the unknown, so a history buff gets a puzzle and a piece of the story at the same time. It is part of the Decode & Inspire Series if they want more after this.
