Sinopsis
This book introduces the Phonetic Society of Great Britain and Ireland, which was established in 1843 by the author and others to spread the use of phonetic spelling in print and writing. Phonetic spelling, which the author had introduced in 1837, is an approach to spelling reform that represents sounds as they are spoken, removing many of the irregularities and inconsistencies found in traditional English orthography. The book provides a detailed explanation of the principles of Phonetic spelling, including the use of simple geometric shapes to represent consonant sounds and diacritical marks to indicate vowel sounds. It also includes a history of the Phonetic Society and its efforts to promote phonetic spelling and lists the society's members as of 1848.

Excerpt from A Manual of Phonography, or Writing by Sound: A Natural Method of Writing by Signs That Represent Spoken Sounds
WE have here [in a scheme which Sir John Herschel] had just given] the fewest letters with which it is possible to write English. But, on the other hand, with the addition of two or three more vowels, and as many consonants, every known language might probably be effectually reduced to writing, so as to preserve an exact correspondence between the writing and pronunciation, which would be one of the most valuable acquisitions, not only to philologists, but to mankind; facili tating the intercourse between nations, and laying the foundation of the first step towards a universal language, one of the great desiderata at which mankind ought to aim by common consent. Sir john herschell. Article Sound.
