Because of clarity, I feel that I should write this review in standard English. (How boring!) The book can be downloaded here: http://www.spellingsociety.org/journals/books/books.php or from my mirror (in one file) here: New Spelling book First, the book contains an unusual high number of mistakes. From their style, it seems that they are the result not of OCR software, but of the human typer writing it wrongly. Since the book is from the 1940s, it was not written on a computer (well, it is technically possible but unlikely). These errors should be fixed as they can sometimes throw the reader off. This is especially important because this is the kind of material where the spelling is important. (For an example see the two tables from the book, reproduced below).
