Abstract
The Voynich Manuscript is definitely not the only encrypted book known to crypto historians.
The authors of this submission are aware of over 100 other tomes that are written completely or to a considerable part in cipher.
This paper provides an overview on these with a focus on their properties and the reasons why they were created.
The main goal of this paper is to compare the Voynich Manuscript with other encrypted books in order to draw conclusions and make educated guesses with respect to some of the unanswered questions surrounding this famous cryptogram.
Most of all, after we categorize the other known encrypted books, then based on the Voynich Manuscript’s similarities with books in various categories, the purpose of the manuscript can be narrowed down with some certainty to two categories: the knowledge book category and the hoax category
