The expeditious accountant; or, cyphering rendered so short, that half the trouble attending the common methods is saved, in most occurrences; and so easy, that a person of moderate capacity may learn with very little assistance from a master; the rules given being plain, the examples properly illustrated, and numbers of questions, with their answers, being annexed to them, to exercise the learner. A very curious work, totally different from all that have preceded it. In five parts. By Nicholas Salomon, Master of the Academy, Red-Lion-Street, Clerkenwell; and author of The French teacher's assistant, and of The rules for the French genders
