Gregg Shorthand

I have a couple Gregg Shrothand books now. This one is by far the best one. Why? The first lesson is tough on like shaped sounds. The K, G, R, and L are all shaped alike. Then the M and N. Followed by the T and D then thrown in is the H. When I learned International Morse Code this was the type of approach they used as well. The E and the T. Build form there to the I and the M followed by adding A and N. Etc. So far I am having fun scribbling notes. My hope is to become somewhat proficient in using shorthand because I suck at spellen and shorthand spells like I do. Now with that said.... I am just now getting to words and phrases.... Wish me luck!

Good. Helpful and informative. I used it with some YouTube videos. It has the same content with the other book with Mr. Gregg himself on the cover, but this one is cheaper.

I think this book would be rather difficult for a beginner to use to learn shorthand. (But then, I really don't know who is learning shorthand for the first time in this day and age). I am 75 years old and used shorthand extensively in my work many years ago, so my remembrance is a little foggy at times. I think I would rather have the original Gregg shorthand textbook that we had in school. But I'm having fun studying and hoping it will help keep my mind alert.

It was delivered on time, packaged well, and it was exactly as advertised. Highly recommend the seller!

Brought back memories when I learned shorthand in high school. Also, took a couple of college classes at the local community college. Good refresher.

I am a big fan of books anyway, but a manual that was released in 1916 for such a specific purpose is fantastic. This book has allowed me to journal more efficiently and completely than I was ever able to do before.

I ordered the paperback. The book is 9 x 6 inches and instead of formatting the print to fit the page, it is published with the original 6 x 4 inch pages of the original on much larger pages. Half each page is white space with tiny little print, like they xeroxed the page onto a larger page. Impossible to read. Will have to return.

Great little book that gives you what you need to get started writing short hand. It is a bit outdated and actually has some racial slurs as practice words. But besides that it has everything you need. I only wish that I could buy a book full of the answers to the exercises.

I used this book to improve my shorthand

Es una libro barato con lo cual no te da pena manipularlo ni nada. Así que es ideal para aprender y apuntar en él. Es ligero, fácil de llevar y seguir. Una guía didáctica sencilla y completa para aprender taquigrafía. La calidad de las impresiones no es la mejor del mundo. La portada viene super pixelada y varias de las palabras en el interior a veces tienen puntos que no son parte de la palabra, y otras las palabras aparecen ligeramente cortadas o falta algún punto. Por otro lado, los ejercicios son muy útiles pero no vienen con ninguna hoja de respuestas, así que la mitad de las veces me tiro más tiempo buscando las respuestas por internet para saber si lo estoy haciendo bien.

Bought a copy of this book 50 years ago and learned Gregg Shorthand. Lost the book a few years ago and bought this copy to reminisce and brush up on a few points.

Print too small. Nothing like the original book.
