Benn Pitman Libri

Follows Lemuel Gulliver on his voyages through fantastical lands, including Lilliput--whose inhabitants are only inches tall--and Brobdingnag, populated with giants.

Phonography, or shorthand writing, was a popular subject in the late nineteenth century, and Benn Pitman was one of its foremost practitioners and instructors. In The Teacher, Pitman lays out his methods for teaching phonography, providing tips, exercises, and practical advice for students and teachers alike. This book is a fascinating look at a lost art and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education.
