These relations are traced through such broad topics as surface features, climate, products, industries, trade, states, cities, etc. Commerce. - History follows routes of trade. For this reason commerce takes a leading place in this book. Products and industries leading to commerce are given many special maps and lessons. This is clearly shown on pages 55 to 65, where cities are treated in their industrial relations. United States. - Every pupil should know the leading facts about his own country. A large part of this book is devoted to the United States. Pictures. - The pictures supplement the text and are true to nature. Nearly all were engraved from photographs. Maps - Special attention is called to the number and variety of maps, as well as to their accuracy. For example, under North America see the shaded relief map on page 40; colored relief map and zone map on page 41; political map on page 43; plant and animal maps on pages 45 and 46. The great relief map of the United States on pages 140 to 141 is photographed from a raised model. The Philippine maps on pages 117 to 121 will be of great help in following current events. Helps. - The Helps after each lesson are to guide pupils towards the leading facts, as well as to help the busy teachers. Pupils should answer questions not in the words of the book but in their own language. Teachers will be pleased to note that only in rare cases is it necessary to turn a leaf to find answers to questions. Spelling - In spelling and usage of geographic names the maps and text follow the rulings of the United States Board on Geographic Names. This book adopts the best modern usage and allows the capital letter in specific names, such as Rhine and Andes, but not in common class names, such as river and mountains, - thus, Rhine river, Andes mountains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from North America The modern teaching of geography, like that of history, lays increasing stress on the value of original authorities. One of the first steps in this direction was the biblio graphy appended to Sir Archibald Geikie's Teaching of Geography, followed in 1897 by Dr. H. R. Mill's Hints to Teachers and Students on the Choice of Geographical Books, compiled at the request of the Geographical Association. The present series goes a step further, and attempts to depict the world in the language of men who have seen it. The difficulties of the task of selection, and of avoiding either deficiency or redundancy, have been exceedingly great. Many excellent extracts have had to be rejected on account of their length, or because they dealt with matters of secondary importance, or, still more Often, because an individual author was already too fully represented. In several cases a certain amount of condensation has been necessary. This has been effected by omission where necessary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Own Islands: An Elementary Study in Geography IN this little book an attempt is made to teach some geography to children, with a human mean ing in each chapter, and no unnecessary names. I do not pretend to begin at the beginning, for the first steps must be trodden with the help of the living teacher alone. Along what path those steps should be guided I have discussed in lectures on the study of geography which I hope shortly to publish. Nor havei tried to make each sentence evident, and to remove all difficulties, for I have assumed that the teacher will supply illustrations accord ing to the locality of his school, and as the know ledge and aptitude of his pupils may require. My Object has been to stimulate and lead oral instruction, not to supplant it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Business Geography Modern geography has become a definite science. Its principles are so well defined that a knowledge of the physical conditions under which a race has lived and now lives gives a reasonably reliable indi cation as to the capacity, activity, Occupations, and business relap tions of that race. In studying this growing science the first step is to understand the main principles. That is the reason for Part I of this book. A second step is to apply the principles to concrete prob lems as is done in Part II. There the community engaged in a particular line of activity is taken as the unit in Order that the geographical relationships may first be studied in relatively simple forms before going on to the more complex regional studies of Parts III and IV. In the regional chapters the aim is to give a clear conception of the way in which geographic conditions influence the products of a region, the capacity of the people, the direction in which their activities are turned, and the nature and extent of their business relations with other regions.
