I'm starting to suspect the person who wrote this book was both mental AND nuts.

There is a trap in the question - that we might mistake "one-half mile square" for half a square mile, when of course a square half a mile on each side is a quarter of a square mile.
Glatt was way too smart for that. Pfft. ETA, For this New Years Eve, I'd like to meet a girl as easy as this puzzle.
