How to Use a Tape Recorder, in Your Business, in Your Home (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from How to Use a Tape Recorder, in Your Business, in Your Home

Much of the credit for this book must go, not to any individual or organization, but to an amazing instrument the tape recorder. Without this electronic marvel, there would not only have been no subject, but in all probability the co-authors would never have been able to collaborate on any project.

When the idea for such a book first entered my mind, I immediately recognized that while the tape recorder was an old and familiar friend, I was not enough of a technician to adequately cover much of the information which was required. The answer was obvious - collaborate with someone who could provide the technical know-how. The right person for the job was also obvious - a close friend from Marine Corps days, H. Jay Bullen.

But I was busy editing a new magazine in Chicago, and Jay Bullen was busy at work as general manager of Leather neck Magazine in Washington. We had, however, been keep ing in regular contact via tape recordings and thus the idea for the book developed through the medium it was to cover. Later, Jay moved to California and again tape recorded correspondence provided an efficient link, simplifying the job of developing ideas, making comments on various material and editing.
