IN the new series of these sterling geographies emphasis is laid 

 on industrial, commercial, and political geography, with just 

 enough physiography to bring out the causal relations. 

 ^[ The text is clear, simple, interesting, and 'explicit. The 

 pictures are distinguished for their aptness and perfect illus- 

 trative character. Two sets of maps are provided, one for 

 reference, and the other for study, the latter having corre- 

 sponding maps drawn to the same scale. 

 ^ The INTRODUCTORY GEOGRAPHY develops the 

 subject in accordance with the child's comprehension, each 

 lesson paving the way for the next. In the treatment of the 

 United States the physiographic, historical, political, industrial, 

 and commercial conditions are taken up in their respective 

 order, the chief industries and the localities devoted largely to 

 each receiving more than usual consideration. The country 

 is regarded as being divided into five industrial sections. 

 U In the SCHOOL GEOGRAPHY a special feature is 

 the presentation of the basal principles of physical and general 

 geography in simple, untechnical language, arranged in num- 

 bered paragraphs. In subsequent pages constant reference is 

 made to these principles, but in each case accompanied by 

 the paragraph number. This greatly simplifies the work, 

 and makes it possible to take up the formal study of these 

 introductory lessons after the remainder of the book has been 

 completed. With a view to enriching the course, numerous 

 specific references are given to selected geographical reading.
