The outlined shapes actually help narrow down the possiblities as it is another limiting factor in placing the symbols.<BR/><BR/>I got a Williams Dean Howells question, too. The Google Book search using the emphasized words, the book title and the author's name brought up the answer immediately.<BR/><BR/>--MadelineM. C.

Every puzzle is different, but in every one there should be pieces that directly have no other place to go, or by thinking ahead a few "moves", have no other place to go. Once those pieces are in place, there should be another "round" of pieces you can place in the same way. If you think ahead when choosing a place for symbols that have more than one option, you can usually narrow it down to a single possible square.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25997830.post-1146857333211288202006-05-05T12:28:00.000-07:002006-05-05T12:28:00.000-07:00I got this question after solving Google Da Vinci ...I got this question after solving Google Da Vinci Code quest # 19: Symbol Challenge<BR/><BR/>During Italian Journeys of 1867, William Dean Howells walks up and down which city?<BR/><BR/>I found the answer here:<BR/>http://explorion.net/w.d.howells-italian-journeys/index.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25997830.post-1146857007719263252006-05-05T12:23:00.000-07:002006-05-05T12:23:00.000-07:00Yet another question:According to William Dean How...Yet another question:<BR/><BR/>According to William Dean Howells' Italian Journeys, this language is de rigueur in all the shops on the Corso.<BR/><BR/>I found it really easy to find.
