Excerpt from A Complete Manual of the Brief System of Shorthand: Arranged for Self-Instruction and for SchoolsNone but those who have had experience in this line can appreciate the amount of work and care required to prepare a Shorthand text book. The author himself did not realize what a task it was when be commenced it. A considerable portion of the time during the past eight months he has devoted to the preparation of this volume. Even after the matter had been definitely arranged, the work of preparing the copy for the engravers and printers, and of the revising necessary in order to insure accuracy, was so great that in some cases several days time was spent upon a single page. All of the Shorthand plates have been read and re-read carefully a number of times, but in spite of the great pains taken to avoid errors, it will not be surprising if some have still been overlooked.It was expected that this book would be ready for dcliv ery by March lst, and to the many whose advance orders we have had since that time, and before, we desire to offer an apology. We have regretted the delay more than any one else could, but under all the circumstances it has been unavoidable.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
