Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Inductive Geography The aim in geography teaching should be to give the pupil knowledge of the earth as it ministers to human life. Geography is not a distinct science; in its three great divisions, mathematical, physical, and political, it draws from the sciences of astronomy, geology, biology, and history. There seems to be no limit to its field; it may include much or little from these great departments of knowledge, according to the tastes and preferences of instructors. The problems confronting the author of a text-book in geography are mainly three: first, the matter to be included; second, the order of arrangement; third, the method of treatment. In the preparation of The Inductive Geography, these problems have been carefully considered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Senior Geography Classic Reprint written by Andrew John Herbertson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Senior Geography The letters which the editor of this series has received in recent years from all parts of the country, and from the colonies, have induced him to plan these books. Instead of two unrelated sections of physical and political geography as in older textbooks, an attempt has been made to write a series of geographies which contains the information usually expected from candidates for preliminary, junior, and senior local examinations, and other examinations of a similar standard, on geographical and educational lines. The first or preliminary volume was largely descriptive, and aimed at presenting definite pictures of the different regions of the globe, together with an outline of the salient topographical features. In the second or junior book a more definitely causal treatment was aimed at, and attention was specially drawn to the interrelation between configuration, climate, vegetation, and human activities. The geography of the British Isles was selected for specially full treatment on these lines, and the inductive method was freely employed to establish general geographical truths which are taken as axiomatic in the present volume. In this, the third or senior volume, it is assumed that pupils already possess some concrete knowledge of the world as a whole, and are familiar with the outlines of the general and economic geography of each continent. This renders it possible to proceed to the consideration of the world according to its Natural Regions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tarbell: Introductory Geography When the child becomes acquainted with the geographical facts that may be known through his own experience at his home and in its vicinity, he needs to learn how these facts are represented upon maps, in order that from maps he may learn the geographical facts relating to other localities. When he can do this, he is ready to study geography from a book. At this point of his advancement the earth, represented by the globe, is presented to his view as a unity to be studied, and thereafter his study is largely a descent from the general to the particular.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commercial Geography The object of this text is the exposition of the principles of commercial geography as based on a knowledge of its more im portant facts. It is regarded as necessary and advantageous to treat products and regions in a single volume, if perspective is observed and if both products and regions are made contributory to the unfolding of principles. To this end minor commodities and regions must surrender their place to facts of larger meaning. Part I offers an inductive approach to principles which are formally stated in Chapter VI. The author holds it wise to avoid an introductory statement of abstract relations, and has therefore chosen five products or staples of world-wide interest, treating them broadly as world products and as typical of all others in the geographic principles involved. No materials of commerce are more significant in themselves, or in their relations, than wheat, cotton, cattle, iron, and coal.

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 captions 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.

Download or read book New Physical Geography Classic Reprint written by Ralph S. Tarr and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Physical Geography Nearly eight years ago the author published his Elementary Physical Geography, which was followed, two years later, by his First Book of Physical Geography, really a presentation, in briefer and more elementary form, of the matter contained in the earlier book. The growth of the science of physical geography, which has been little short of marvelous, the rapid advance in rank which the subject has won for itself in the schools, and the new ideas and new methods of presentation which have come to the author, have, for several years, made him desirous of undertaking a revision of one or both of his texts. When, however, this desire was given concrete form, and systematic attention was paid to the nature of the revision, it became evident that it would mean, not merely a revision, not even a mere rewriting, but a complete destruction of the old book and the construction of an entirely new book, different in plan, in scope, and, in many respects, in subject-matter. Then, for the first time, arose the idea that, since it would be a new book in fact, it would be better to issue it as such than as a new book under an old title. One important reason for reaching this decision was the fact that both the Elementary and First Book are in wide use. A field for them evidently exists, and it appears hardly wise to destroy absolutely that for which there is a demand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Elementary Geography This book develops the subject upon a definite and natural plan, and in harmony with approved principles of teaching. Each lesson, while complete in itself, paves the way to the following lesson. The pupil is led from that which is perfectly familiar and within easy range Of his Observation, to form correct ideas of things that are remote and strange; and not until such notions have been formed are these things named or defined. Generalizations are demanded only after the materials for their formation have been studied. The pupil's own country is presented early in the treatment, and then all other countries are studied in their relations to it. The subject is treated simply and sensibly. The book keeps well within the range Of the pupil's comprehension, but never descends to baby talk or other artificial means to hold his attention. The pupil is required to work rather than the teacher, and at the same time the book excites the interest Of both pupil and teacher and stimulates them University College, Toronto.

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 Complete Geography Commerce. A work on geography that seeks to lay a broad basis for the study of nations must throw a strong search-light upon their commercial relations. Commerce and the related industries take a leading place in this book, - those of our own country being illustrated by twenty-two colored maps prepared expressly for this work. The intelligent study of a country's natural resources must be based on knowledge of its physical features. For this reason the surface-forms and the climate of the various parts of the world receive full treatment in the text, the maps and the pictures. The natural regions of the United States are made to serve as a basis for the comparative study of other lands. Order of Lessons. Though most teachers using this book will doubtless present the lessons in the order in which they appear, yet those who wish to complete the study of the United States in detail, before showing the broader relations of our country to other lands, can readily do so. The work is so arranged that pupils can go directly from the early lessons on the physical features and resources of our country (pages 30 to 52) to the study of its people, its government and its industries (pages 123 et seq).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Physical Geography For some time there have been indications that new textbooks on physical geography are demanded; and in the report of the Committee of Ten this finds definite expression. In the preparation of this book, which has been in hand for several years, there is an attempt to meet this apparent demand; but for reasons which are obvious to many, it has not seemed wise to attempt to follow the somewhat radical suggestions which were made by the majority of the geography conference of the Committee of Ten. Therefore, while the physiographic side is given more prominence than is customary in works of this kind, this book attempts to only partly meet the Committees suggestions. In the preparation of the book, effort has been made to introduce new material, particularly in the illustrations, which are a prominent part of the book. Also, there has been an endeavor to make the book scientifically accurate, and to introduce the latest knowledge on the subjects treated. There are probably places in which this is not done, for the field is so large that much must be compilation; and the compiler is liable to fall into error.
