Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Physical Geography As aids to the study of the text, a brief Summary is given at the close of each section, and a Topical Outline and a set of Review Questions are placed at the end of each chapter. It is believed that the great majority of teachers will wel come these aids. No teacher will, of course, be content to follow the questions absolutely and without modification; the individuality of the teacher will appear here, as else where. But these summaries, topics, and questions cover the essentials in the text; and their use as a basis for work, with such modifications and additions as may be deemed necessary, will be a far lighter task than the production of an entire series by the teacher. Thus, relieved of a form of drudgery, time will be available for the expenditure of energy in more profitable lines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Complete Geography We have decided to teach these features objectively on a plan that has been highly commended. For instance. Instead of devoting two or three pages of text to the origin of mountains. A subject in which the average child takes no interest, we give in the general presentation of the physical geography of the earth four pictures of mountains, and under each picture give a brief description of the origin and character of the formation. The same course has been followed with reference to other physical features. The pupil will read these descriptions because of his interest in the picture, and will remember them for life because of their association with it. Commercial and Industrial Geography. - A leading feature of this book is the treatment of industrial and commercial geography. In actual life, it is a knowledge of the countries of the earth, and of the people who inhabit them, of their resources and industries, their cities and commercial relations, that one needs for practical business purposes, or even for an intelligent appreciation of the contents of the daily newspapers. Industrial Illustrations. - In carrying out this plan we have been engaged for three years past in collecting from all parts of the world industrial pictures - photographs showing machinery in actual operation, and under these we have placed descriptions which give in a few words a clear idea of the process of manufacture. We have distributed these throughout the book in such a way as to identify each industry with some state or country where it is especially prominent. We believe that this plan will awaken present interest and prove of permanent value. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Physical Geography A careful study of physical geography tends to lead the mind to the conclusion that the great geographical constituents of our planet the solid land, the ocean, and the atmosphere 7 are mutually de pendent and connected by incessant action and reaction upon one another; and hence, that the Earth is really a wonderful mechan ism, all parts of which work together harmoniously to accomplish the purpose assigned to it by an All-wise Creator.

Download or read book Rabenort s Geography written by William Rabenort and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rabenort's Geography: The United States as a Whole This book describes in bold outlines the forms of life and nature which characterize the United States as a whole. The world is the home of man, and no part of it is more attractive or better repays study than the land in which we live. In this book, as in the other volumes of the series, emphasis is laid upon typical occupations, customs, pastimes, and other phases of life. The human relations of such physiographic features as surface, streams, climate, plants and animals are, also, treated fully enough. The facts and inferences of geography that please girls and boys are those that are most useful to the traveler, farmer, fisherman, miner, mechanic, manufacturer, and merchant. Children are interested in the workers who provide food, clothing, shelter, furniture, playthings, tools, machinery, and other commodities which touch the lives of children. They like to know where these things come from, how they are obtained, how prepared, and how used. The investigation and explanation of such facts make geography for many children the most interesting and practical of all school subjects. Therefore, the applications of geography to business and industry predominate in this book, and such topics as forests, waterways, crops, farm animals, minerals, transportation lines, leading manufactures, exports and imports are treated more fully than in most elementary textbooks.

Suppose again you had been the commanding officer at some great battle, and wished to explain the movements of the troops to a friend, to shew how this farmhouse was taken, that clump of trees occupied, and that road defended, in short how the battle went from beginning to end; what would you do? You would draw it all out small on a piece of paper, in the same proportions, and with the places and things in their positions with regard to each other, just as it would look if you were hanging over it in a balloon in other words, you would make a map of it, and then you could easily shew your friend where the regiments stood, and how the batteries were placed, and in short could go through all the successive operations of the day, and make them plain to him, plainer than they were in the battle itself, where only one part could be seen at a time.

Download or read book The International Geography Classic Reprint written by Hugh Robert Mill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-24 with total page 1120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The International Geography The allotment of Space was made after comparing a number of the leading systematic text-books in all languages, and taking account of the area, the population and the degree of accurate knowledge regarding the different countries. The original allocation of space has, however, been slightly altered at the representation of the authors. As the book is intended to appear at first in the English language only, the parts of the world occupied or controlled by the English-speaking nations have been treated more fully than the rest but without giving the excessive promi nence to the native country which is Characteristic of books intended only for school use. The United Kingdom, though occupying much less space than in most English text-books, is treated in greater detail than any other large country. This is because the materials for its geographical description are perhaps more ample and as yet less studied than those of almost any other region. The United States could not be considered in equal detail, but the novel and scientific plan adopted for the Chapter dealing with them makes it perhaps the most instructive in the book, and it is also the longest. The countries of Europe, especially those recognised as Great Powers, have also been treated more fully than is usual in English or American books, and from a point of View that cannot fail to throw new light on their nature and people. No part of the world dominated by Western Civilisation is viewed as a foreign land but is Opened to study from within.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Book of Physical Geography IN preparing my Elementary Physical Geography, I attempted to present the subject in such a way as to put it forward in its more modern aspect, and particularly to include the new physiography, or science of land form. An effort was made to cover the entire ground in a very elementary way; but at once the difficulty arose that the field was so large, that even to present the subject in an elementary manner would require a good-sized book. To avoid this there were two things possible: one to omit some parts and curtail others; the other to com mence the consideration of some subjects with the assump tion that either the scholars knew the preliminary points, or that the teacher could explain them. Both of these methods of shortening the book were followed, but even then it grew to a size entirely too large for those schools in which the subject has a minor place. The result has been, that although this book has met with a success wholly unexpected, many teachers who wish to give instruction in the new physical geography, are unable to make use of it. It is partly in the hope of meeting the needs of these, that I have undertaken the prep aration of this smaller book, from which still other sub jeeta are omitted, but in which the attempt is made to start from the beginning, and make every topic thoroughly clear.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Geography Humboldt was, above all, a great traveller, but he was also a man of science in the largest sense, interested not in one group of facts, but in many. The extent of his knowledge and the breadth of his interests enabled him to observe a vast number of phenomena while his particular genius was manifest in the way in which he correlated these, and considered them in their relation to each other. Though it is true that his influence was most direct in the case of natural history, yet in this respect also he pointed to the future, for the geographers of to-day are in debted to the naturalists for some of their finest generalisations.
