Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geography of Europe and the British Isles, for Junior and Middle Forms This text-book for junior forms endeavours to avoid the dangers consequent on presenting mere tabular lists of facts to be learnt by the pupil as home-work. In the teaching of history it is fully recognized that a synopsis is not the best form of text-book, and the same view holds good with regard to the teaching of geography. The descriptive and narrative form adopted in this book will, it is believed, help the pupil to grasp, and to retain in memory, the names of the physical features, and of the places mentioned. The book deals with political geography under two distinct aspects: the industrial, and the historical. The latter is of necessity presented in outline only, yet the importance and interest of many places - such, for instance, as Rome, or Rouen - is historical rather than industrial or political, and therefore a slight sketch has been given of the historical development of each country, with its effects on the character and customs of the inhabitants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geography of Europe IN this volume I have sought to present a general geographical sketch of Europe, and of the various States into which it is divided. In the case of each country the physical features are first described; then an attempt is made to mark the stages of its history, so far as they are related to geography. Next I have brought together some of the leading facts relating to government, population and national character, religion and education, and industry and trade. Finally, an account is given of the principal towns, these being generally grouped under the historic divisions to which they respectively belong. For the reason stated in the text, only a short chapter on the British Isles has been written. This may suffice to show how closely Great Britain is associated with the Continent, with which it was at one time connected by land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geography of the British Isles In this Series I have tried to embody the experience of a teacher and of an examiner. This experience has led me to several conclusions, which will, I believe, be confirmed by most practical teachers who are interested in Geography as a subject of real educational value: - 1. That map in text-books cannot generally be used directly with the text, as it is impracticable to hare the book open in more than one place at a time; bat that their presence in books has led to a regrettable neglect of the Atlas. 2. That an excessive variety of type and other mechanical devices for classification confuse the average pupil. 3. That most text-books contain much which would be better learned from the Atlas, or which is only an unnecessary tax on the memory. Consequently, this Series contains no maps and little variety of type; and I have intentionally avoided mentioning, e.g. exact heights, distances or sizes, small industries, and unimportant places. Wherever any definite comparisons are made, they are intended only for reference, and not to be learnt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictorial Geographical Readers: The British Isles Let us look at the Globe and try to find out the British Isles. There they are, two little patches of red in the blue ocean. The larger patch is called Great Britain, the smaller patch Ireland. The northern part of Great Britain is known as Scotland the southern part is called England, and the western part Wales. Great Britain, Ireland and the adjacent islands make up the British Isles. There are many other red patches on the globe. They represent countries which form part of the British Empire. Look at that large square with the little dark square in the corner. The small square represents the size of the British Isles, the large square the size of the British Empire. If you measure them, you will find that the British Empire is over eighty times as large as the British Isles.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Home-Lands: A Regional Study of the Geography of the British Isles When the great Roman general, Julius Caesar, came and saw and conquered our island, there was living in Rome another famous man named Virgil. He was not a soldier, but a poet, and is often spoken of as the Prince of the Latin Poets. In one of his books, Virgil wrote of the island that Caesar had conquered, and said that it was remote from the world. At that time, two thousand years ago, there were far fewer people in the world than there are now. The great nations who made up the Old World of people lived around the Mediterranean, or Middle Sea. They believed that the earth was flat; they knew nothing of the New World of America, or of the great land we call Australia they knew very little of the continent of Africa.

This book was released on 2016-08-30 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commercial Geography of the British Isles The occupations of men, therefore, have a natural distribution. On the coast they become fishers, sailors, or traders; on the plains, farmers; on the hills, shepherds; while mining and other industries depend ing upon coal and iron spring up where these sources of natural wealth are available. Looking at a physical map of the British Isles, the south-east of Great Britain and the centre of Ireland are seen to be plains; the northern half of Great Britain and all the west and the corners of Ireland are generally mountainous, with plains of small extent. The south-east and east of Great Britain, therefore, are mainly agricultural, and the west mainly pastoral. Agriculture is more developed in Ireland on the central plain than in the mountains to the north west and south, but cattle-rearing is everywhere more important than the cultivation of the soil. This is largely due to the heavy rains, an illustration of the fact that climate as well as relief helps to deter mine the nature and distribution of occupations.
