Double Acrostic Enigmas: With Poetical Descriptions Selected Principally From British Poets (1868) is a book written by Kate Gordon.

Each enigma is accompanied by a poetic description, which is selected from British poets. The book is intended to be a challenging and entertaining way to exercise the mind and improve one’s vocabulary and knowledge of poetry. The enigmas are suitable for both adults and children, and the book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in puzzles, poetry, or language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
