In composing the present work, the author's object has been, not to dissect
the several countries of the world, and then label their dead limbs, but to depict
each country, as made by God and modined by man, so that the relations
between the country and its inhabitants — in other words, the prcsent geo-
graphical life of the country — may appear.

which is a great advance upon previous Geographic Manuals. . . . Almost
for the first time, we have here met with a School Geography that is quite
a readable book, — one that, being intended for advanced pupils, is xrell adapted
to make them study the subject with a degi-ee of interest they have never yet
felt in it.
