Reclus's masterly works on " The Earth " and " The Ocean," elucidating 

 many of the mysteries of creation, and making science beautifully clear and 

 attractive. — Boston Transcript. 



We do not think that we are wide of the mark in saying that the two 

 volumes of Reclus's — " The Earth " and " The Ocean " — come nearer to sup- 

 plying a real physical geography of the globe than any work or works in the 

 English language. — N. Y. World. 



For thorough research, rich attainments, and graphic style, M. Reclus 

 holds high rank among the scientists of the day. It should be borne in 

 mind that this work and its predecessor are written not for those already 

 thoroughly versed in science, so much as for that much larger class of per- 

 sons who seek to relieve the monotony of daily routine by the acquisition of 

 some degree of knowledge, and who need books which, while accurate and in 

 some sense profound, shall be free from technicalities and open to general 

 understanding. Such books M. Reclus has furnished in these two volumes, 

 which, taken jointly, cover a wide range of discussion. — Boston Journal.
