STANFORD'S NEW GEOGRAPHICAL SERIES OF 
WALL MAPS. 
For use in Schools and Colleges. Edited by Professor RAMSAT, LL.D., F.K.S., ic., 
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 studi-nt, 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 feriile 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 inuuutiict urine; 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 band, 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 Phy>ical Series of Wall Maps for use in 
Schools and Colleges, are ready for sale, and will be found, both in utility and artktic 
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.
