John Robert GreggGregg Shorthand

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.

It was too small ( a photocopie of the original book)

I used this book to improve my shorthand

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 It is a bit outdated and actually has some racial slurs as practice words.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 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!
