Welcome to the Mr. Smith’s Store. Our aim here is to simplify computer books. We literally take you by the hand and lead you. At Mr. Smith’s we take you and your computer learning seriously, it is our business and we aim to be recognized as the best at it.
The first 50 books which are currently available on this site were all written one after the other and took over three years of continual work.
The project did not begin as a fifty-book project; in fact it began as a one-book guide to the Basic to Intermediate course at our Computer training school. It just kept on growing because I wanted to continually improve the product. This in turn grew to a strong desire to share all my knowledge on the subject. It also became a challenge and my aim became one of having a book available to you if you are a user of the popular Microsoft Office programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access and Outlook, regardless of your proficiency, be it beginner or someone seeking certification at the Microsoft Office Specialist (M.O.S.) or E.C.D.L. Certification at both the Core as well as the Expert level.
In the end the project totaled 13,937 pages, 2,408,393 words and 10,931 illustrations.
The entire project was handled by one person, writing, typing, formatting, designing, indexing, table of contents, cover design, the entire project was done by the author Hughan Smith mainly as a labor of passion and love, and a study in dedication and commitment while using the very same programs which he has written about.
Why are we writing computer books when there are so many already available? The answer lies in the approach we take in writing and teaching it. Our approach has been the results of intensive surveys and studies about students reading and learning habits, when it comes to computer books.
The books are not like most computer books that you see. They are unique in the simplistic style with which the information is presented and in turn understood by you the reader.
Information is presented in a step by step way with illustrations to guide you. Few things that you want to know will take you more than ten minutes to understand.
Also our books cover Microsoft Office 2000, Office 2003 and includes ten books on the newly introduced and very different Microsoft Office 2007. So regardless of the version that you have installed on your computer, we have a book for you.
In addition to the individual titles there are also series such as “Teach Yourself”, “To The Point” and “Little Black Book”
The “Teach Yourself” series is designed for anyone including beginners and there are eight books in that series. The “To The Point” series is written specifically for the Office 2007 programs and are designed for those making the transition from the previous versions of the programs. The series will also serve as an excellent guide for beginners also. There are currently three books in the series.
The “Little Black Book” series is designed as a pocket reference small in size so that you can easily carry it with you anywhere you go; there are six books in the series.
If you have ever had problems with Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access, Windows or using the Internet, we urge you to take time and browse. In particular you should view the Preview of each book to get an idea of its contents.
In each case we have provided the Table of Contents as the preview document.
You may purchase any of our books with the full confidence that if we say it, we are capable of delivering it and that we shall always go that extra mile to provide you with excellent value for your money.
We pride ourselves on our commitment to delivering a quality product each time.
Please, after you have purchased any of our books, do let us know what you think. We would love to hear from you. Once again a warm welcome, and stick around for a while.
