This is intended to cover the work in physical geography 

 as given in the first or second year of the high school. It 

 does not provide more than can be assimilated in such a course, 

 and the author's clear and delightful style makes it more than 

 ordinarily interesting for high-school pupils. 



T. A. JAGGAR, Jr., Massachu- 

 setts Institute of Technology: 

 This book seems to me to be 

 the best of its kind, and to be 

 especially valuable on account of 

 the admirable illustrations which 

 include so much that is novel in 

 the way of photographs and con- 

 tour maps. The language is 

 simple and the diagrams are 

 clear. 



CLIFTOX A. TOWLE, Worcester 

 Academy, Mass.: It is proving 

 to be a valuable text for us. It 

 is extremely interesting and at- 

 tractive to boys, and its worth as 

 a serious and accurate book is 

 very great. 



R. D. CALKINS, Mt. Pleasant, 

 Mich., Normal School, in SCHOOL 

 SCIEXCE AND MATHEMATICS: 

 The reviewer ... is glad to be 

 able to add the statement that 

 he has been using this text since 

 it first appeared some two 

 months ago, with a class of stu- 

 dents who are about ninth 

 graders, and this experience has 

 th 



demonstrated to the writer's 



satisfaction that the book pos- 

 sesses that much-to-be-desired, 

 tho often rare, quality in a text 

 of being what might be called 

 teachable. 



E. L. MORRIS, Brooklyn In- 

 stitute of Arts and Sciences, 

 formerly Head of the Science De- 

 partment, Central High School, 

 Washington, D. C.: I have seen 

 no text-book on physiography 

 which is so satisfactory from 

 plainness of speech, balance and 

 arrangement of topics, and 

 clearness and usefulness of illus- 

 trations. 



W. H. HAWKES, Ann Arbor 

 (Mich.) High School: I am of 

 the opinion, after careful ex- 

 amination of the leading Physi- 

 ographies on the market, that 

 Salisbury's Briefer Course of 

 Physiography is in the lead, in 

 the method of treatment of the 

 subject of Earth Science, its 

 clearness of presentation of de- 

 tail, and especially in the ways 

 in which the subject matter is 

 discussed in illustrative diagrams.
