STANFORD'S NEW GEOGRAPHICAL SERIES OF 

 WALL MAPS. 



For use in Schools and Colleges. Edited by Professor RAMSAY, LL.D., F.R.S., &c., 

 Director-General of the Geological Surveys of the United Kingdom. 



This series aims at exhibiting in the first place, and prominently, the forms of 

 relief and of contour of the land masses of the globe, and next of the sea bed. At 

 once a general idea is gained by the youngest student, on an inspection of the Map, 

 of the relative position of the high, dry, and cold table-lands and mountainous 

 regions, and the warm, moist, and fertile plains in each great division of the globe. 

 For instance, in our own country it is seen at once why the eastern part is devoted 

 to agricultural purposes, and the western part to mining and manufacturing; or by 

 reference to the Map of Europe we can readily see how a rise in the level of the sea 

 of a few hundreds of feet would suffice to inundate the whole northern part of 

 Europe ; and on the other hand, how the general upheaval of the land of a few hun- 

 dreds of feet would alter the whole contour of Europe, connecting the British Isles 

 with the Continent, and annihilating the North Sea and the Baltic. 



The following Maps, forming part of the Physical Series of Wall Maps for use in 

 Schools and Colleges, are ready for sale, and will be found, both in utility and artistic 

 finish, not inferior to any Maps hitherto offered to the public. 



They are uniform in scale and size with the Political Series already in use, and 

 which have acquired so great a popularity ; and will be found as accurate and, it is 

 hoped and believed, as useful in teaching Physical Geography as the companion series 

 are and have been in Political Geography.
