Book excerpt: The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Rich in titles on English life and social history, this collection spans the world as it was known to eighteenth-century historians and explorers. Titles include a wealth of travel accounts and diaries, histories of nations from throughout the world, and maps and charts of a world that was still being discovered. Students of the War of American Independence will find fascinating accounts from the British side of conflict. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Compendium of Ancient Geography, Vol. 1: Illustrated With Maps, Carefully Reduced From Those of the Paris Atlas, in Imperial Folio; With a Map of Roman Britain, From the Learned John Horseley, M.A. F. R. S. And With Prolegomena and Notes by the Translator, Calculated for Private Libraries, as We I undertake, says a geographer of anti-quity, to describe the World; a work filled with difficulties, and susceptible of no elegance of style. But when we apply to study to acquire knowledge, we ought, to the desire of gratifying our own curiosity, to join the motive of being of some utility, if possible, to the public. After having in the course of fifteen years, under the incitement and auspices of Monseigneur the late Duke of Orleans, and those of the prince his son, given charts, more ample than any preceding, of the four parts of the world, followed by a map of the two hemispheres, I have devoted myself to the composition of a second series, reserved for ancient geography; an object that has ever been dear to me. It would appear superfluous to recommend particularly what is generally acknowledged; the necessity of being instructed in this Geography, to read ancient history with profit.

R. S. And With Prolegomena and Notes by the Translator, Calculated for Private Libraries, as We The study of a book of this nature requires in dispensabl y the concomitant contemplation' of maps: but what would be the number of morsels dispersed through such a work, were they to be made correspondent with the number Of partieus lar regions w hich so vast a space as that described therein comprehends? It is not a book Ofimere amusement, to be taken up wherever it is found. Serious as it is however, it may be easily aecom panied with arollof charts, or a portfolio that con; tains them. One cannot be too sensible of the'ad vantage of rendering familiar to the eye the 'situa tion, the extent, and the general connection of the respective contiguous parts, rather than having them disjointed, and represented under various scales, which in such case would be inevitable; so that to acquire a competent idea of their re union and conformity, a laborious application would become necessary: and witha'l there would not result from them the same effect that a fre quent and reiterated inspection of the same plate produces on the understanding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this 1994 book, Xavier de Planhol and Paul Claval, two of France's leading scholars in the field, trace the historical geography of their country from its roots in the Roman province of Gaul to the 1990s. They demonstrate how, for centuries, France was little more than an ideological concept, despite its natural physical boundaries and long territorial history. They examine the relatively late development of a more complex territorial geography, involving political, religious, cultural, agricultural and industrial unities and diversities. The conclusion reached is that only in the twentieth century had France achieved a profound territorial unity and only now are the fragmentations of the past being overwritten.

The third is of Chief Seas and the fourth, called Table da Local a detail, comprifes the names contained as well in the Nomen clature, and diftinguilhed by the letter N, as thofe contained in the text, and which refer to the volume and page; but without the modern names.
