Hanna'S Complete Ready Reckoner, And Log, Table And Form Book (U.S. Standard)

By John Smith Hanna

Step into the bustling nineteenth-century counting-house, where every figure meant profit or loss and accuracy kept trade alive. Perfect for merchants and clerks. First published as a practical business ready reckoner handbook by John Smith Hanna, this compact companion gathers commercial arithmetic and tables into an accessible, at-a-glance tool for shop counters and office desks. From everyday prices and interest to freight, weights, and measures, its u.s. standard measurement tables and carefully arranged tables for quick calculation reflect the working language of early American commerce, offering a vivid window into daily trade. Part merchants quick reference, part clerks and bookkeepers guide, Hanna's volume also functions as a log book and forms resource, supporting orderly record keeping and logging in shops, warehouses, and offices. As a 19th century business reference and early american trade manual, it stands today as an antique bookkeeping reference and vintage business math guide, prized by historians of commerce, re-enactors, writers seeking period detail, and anyone fascinated by how figures once flowed across the page. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
