Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Groundwork of Modern Geography an Introduction to the Science of Geography The writer of a book on Geography can scarcely hope to be really original but every writer or teacher may emphasise those parts of the science which appeal most strongly to him, or which seem to him to be most important. In this book the author has exercised this privilege freely, and has followed what appears to him to be a natural sequence. It is perfectly obvious, however, that other writers may prefer a different order, and may choose to emphasise other aspects of this wide science. Limits of space have necessitated the sacrifice of Mathematical Geography and Cartography, and the important branch Oceanography is only incidentally mentioned. The author has had in View a book which may provide, within moderate compass, an introduction to the so-called New Geography. It is hoped that not only the student but also the intelligent general reader may find the book of some interest, and that it may serve as a preparation for, and a stimulus to, the reading of one or more of the excellent monographs or Regional Geographies now available in English. The admirable series The Regions of the World, edited by Mr. Mackinder, and the stimulating Europe, by Prof. Lyde, may be mentioned as examples of books to which the present groundwork may possibly serve as an introduction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical System of Modern Geography: Or a View of the Present State of the World The introduction of Geography into common schools, as a regular branch of education, has of late years become nearly universal. For merly this science was taught only to the higher classes, it being thought by most teachers that the pupil must be well advanced in other branches before he could study this with advantage. Experience has however taught, that children can learn Geography at a very early age, and hence its introduction into the younger classes at the pre sent time.

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.

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.
