    Good book

    I originally checked this book out at the library because I wanted to try and learn Gregg Shorthand. I liked this book and thought it explained things really well, so I decided to buy myself a copy off of eBay. If you're wanting to learn Gregg Shorthand, I think that this book would be a good option for you.

  • Amazed how much I remember from 40 years ago ...

    Tired of scribbling notes at meetings that I can't read later, I decided to go back and relearn Gregg. This book is much updated from that older school version. I can see that this will be handy in ever aspect of life, from scribbling observations for later review and follow up and just having notes few can decypher. And, it's a clean book in good repair and those are hard to come by these days.

  • Really great book

    Superior book from a superior age. It amazes me when I read from these that people ask me if it's Arabic. Shows you how smart your adult kids aren't.

  • Excited

    I took a shorthand class in high school and did well but a few years after graduating I did not continue using the skill of shorthand. Now I have decided to refresh my skills again. So far I’m enjoying learning once again this style of writing and note taking through Gregg Simplified Shorthand Manual.
