Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School Geography Of late years the study of Physical Geography has made rapid advances; it forms part of the course of study in higher schools, and has its lectureships and professorships in various universities of the United States and Europe. It is recognized not only as an important study in itself, cultivating the habit of observation and of associating cause and effect, but also as an introduction, or rather an incitement, to the study of various sciences. Physical Geography, a description of Nature in What pertains to the Earth, is eclectic in character. Resting mainly on Geology, and only to a less degree upon Meteor ology, it reaches out to Astronomy, to Mineralogy, to Chemistry, to Biology, and even to History and Political Economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School Geography: Physical, Economic and Regional The most important thing about the earth is the fact that it is a human planet, that men not only live upon it, but make. Somehow, a living out of it. The earth as a planet, a machine which goes and works, an organism which has grown and developed in the past and will continue to do so in the future, has never been so thoroughly studied and understood as it is to - day. The main result of such study, under the name of physical geography, has been a favorite subject in secondary schools. Some special phases of human activity, more or less closely related to the earth, such as products, manufactures, trade, races, customs, language, religion, and government, are everywhere taught under the names of commercial and political geography. But these different kinds of geography are seldom brought closely together, and the crowning relationship of all geographic science, the relation of the human species to its natural environment, is generally missed or but dim seen.

Download or read book Longmans School Geography Classic Reprint written by George Goudie Chisholm and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Longmans' School Geography A treatment of foreign countries is thus obtained sufficiently extended for an adequate description, and which gives such a knowledge of them as should be had by pupils completing a school course in geography, 1la, broad enough to afford basis for intelligent comparison with their own country. As to the manner of treatment adopted for the American sections, it may be said that it is the outcome of a belief that a topical description, and one viewing the country as a whole, is more satisfactory than a recital of a similar series of data for each of its numerous subdivisions. Enough of the separate data, it is thought, are included in the tables on pp. 140 - 142, and in the paragraphs on Subdivisions and Towns. The special facts of surface, climate, productions, &c., of each State and Territory should be deduced from its position with reference to the chief features and conditions with which the general description has to do. Space is thus afforded for a more detailed general description, and for the introduction of facts and statistics showing more minutely the results of geographic conditions.

The schools are open to all, and everyone who is able and, willing to work hard may have the advantages of the highest and best education. Each one will have the responsibility of citizenship in a great nation. To fulfill the responsibility of citizenship, to help the home community, the state, and the nation, each one of us should understand the geography of this country; and at this time, when the United States of America is taking a larger and larger part in affairs of world-wide importance, it is more necessary than ever before that We know also the geography of other countries. Variety in physical and human geography. Some parts of the United States are warm and other parts are cold; some are well watered and forested, others have a moderate rainfall and are grasslands; and still others are very dry. In some sections of the country there are plains, in some parts there are plateaus, and in other parts there are mountains. See map opposite page 82. Vast areas of rich soils. Have led to farming, and the extensive grasslands have invited many to raise cattle, horses, and sheep. The wonderful supplies of coal, oil, gas, and water-power', together with iron, copper, lead, and zinc, have made possible a most re markable industrial development. People living on the coast, where there are good harbors, have very natu rally become interested in commerce, and throughout the land many are engaged in trade and transportation. Because the physical geography differs so widely in the many sections, the human geography varies also. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geography: Physical, Economic, Regional The World War stimulated the reconstruction of our educational scheme, and in all parts of this country efforts are being made so to recast our courses of study that school-education may be of greater value in the affairs of life. In this work the secondary schools are being carefully studied. This is very important because comparatively few of our young people extend their school life beyond the high school. This means that the studies selected for this four-year period should be chosen because of their actual value to the average individual, rather than because they prepare a few students to enter college.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Longmans' School Geography for North America The circles which pass through the poles are called circles of longi tude. Half such a circle is also called a meridian,1 because all places on it have noon at the same instant. It is then midnight at all places on the other half of the same circle. Longitude is measured by degrees which denote the angles which the planes of the successive meridians make with one another. There is no natural starting-point from which to measure longitude; hence different starting-points have been chosen. That which is now gener ally adopted is the one that passes through the Royal Observatory at Greenwich. F rom it 180 degrees of longitude are counted west, and 180 east.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Human Geography in the Air Age, (a d104 for High School Students) To name all the men, women, schools, aviation industries and authorities, publishers, representatives of colleges, universities, school systems, non-profit institutions and agencies of State and Federal Governments who made possible the air-age education series would be a difficult task. In individual books, authors have acknowledged assistance and advice from many sources. Yet the series owes its existence more particularly to a few individuals and organizations. Special acknowledgments are due to Mr. Robert H. Hinckley, who, as Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Air, was the pioneer advocate of air-conditioning America; to Mr. C. I. Stanton, Ad ministrator of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, who gave essential support to a program of aviation-education research; to Mr. Bruce Uthus of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, whose encouragement, resourcefulness, and ability so largely account for the development of the air-age education series to Dr. John W. Studebaker, United States Commissioner of Education, who has done much to prepare American education to meet the challenge of the air age; to Professor N. L. Engelhardt, Teachers College, Columbia University, and his colleagues, who guided the develop ment of materials reflected in this book and related teaching materials; and, finally, to Teachers College, Columbia University for the provision of indispensable office space, library, and other research facilities.
