from the back cover...

"The rails I tote" is, of course, just another way of saying "The tales I wrote" by transposing some initial sounds in the manner of the Rev. William A. Spooner who was famous - or notorious - for his twisted diction and eventually became immortalized in the term Spoonerisms.

The book contains 45 puzzles for those who enjoy wordplay.
