The 15 Puzzle - How it Drove the World Crazy
Jerry Slocum, Dic Sonneveld
This book is an extensively researched masterpiece which goes into great depth about the Fifteen Puzzle craze that swept 19th century America. I was shocked to discover that Sam Loyd lied when he claimed he invented the impossible 14-15 Puzzle, and he wasn't even the first to offer a prize for solving it either! That honor goes to dentist Charles Pevey who bizarrely offered a $25. set of teeth. The book contains many more fascinating insights like this and is a must for any puzzle lover.
