I am disappointed to see that a solution was posted as it ruins the challenge for problem solvers that have not yet solved it or were still trying for 1 pawn solutions. I sent in a solution several days ago with 9 Queens and 1 pawn and was looking forward to winning a book. Now I see these answers here... they should have waited until after the contest ended before posting them.
