American-Syle Crossword via Australia

Home» Crosswords» General
There are two main types of crosswords: British or American-style. Being Australian, we tend to follow styles from our former colonial masters; crosswords tend to be in the British format. So for this author to attempt an American-style format with US spelling, of course is challenging. Here goes. Good luck.
