How hard they are

Graded by the model in our guide to solving cryptograms: 113 easy, 134 medium and 71 hard. Most of Louisa May Alcott’s puzzles land in the medium tier.

They average 72.5 letters over 19.4 distinct ones, with 4.1 letters appearing exactly once, which are the letters a frequency count cannot help you with. 45.3% carry an apostrophe, which hands over a letter outright.
