Excerpt from The Phonographic Dictionary and Phrase Book
An undertaking so costly in time, labor, and money as the preparation of this, the most complete phonographic dictionary and phrase-book ever published, would hardly have been entered upon had not the great utility of works of its class been abun dautly demonstrated during the half century which has elapsed since the publication of Isaac Pitman's first Phonographic and Pronouncin g Vocabulary of the English Language. That work made its first appearance in 1850, and so obvious was its im portance to learners of phonography that not fewer than seven editions of it have been published in England, several of them appearing in many distinct issues.
