This book explores various themes from English and Roman histories, as well as Greek mythology, through a series of cleverly constructed enigmas meant to challenge and amuse readers of all ages. Each set of riddles corresponds to a month of the year, helping to intertwine classical knowledge with a fun and interactive format. The content of the book consists of a variety of riddles that incorporate historical figures, mythological characters, and significant events. Each enigma invites the reader to piece together clues and derive a particular month's name by focusing on the initials of the answers provided within the text. For example, clues range from notable monarchs and gods to significant places and literary figures, all requiring a sound understanding of classical lore and history. The challenge is not only to solve the riddles but also to reflect on the rich tapestry of cultural narratives that these enigmas present, thus fostering memory and learning in a light-hearted manner.
