A complete system of stenography, or short-hand writing...
[New London]: printed for the author [by S. Green], 1823. 12mo, pp. 12; inserted engraved title page with a Providence imprint, and 9 engraved plates; contemporary and likely original black roan-backed marbled boards; scuffed and rubbed, but sound. Mr. Dodge, of Providence, writes on p. 5: "Several systems of stenography have made their appearance within the last half century, the best of which that has been heretofore published is the European system by Taylor. This has been arranged and published on a chart entitled "Stenographic Synopsis" by Mr. Gold of Albany. The system, however, admits of much simplifying, and is in some measure the groundwork of the following pages." American Imprints 12388. Item #53574
