Excerpt from An Introduction to Ancient and Modern Geography, on the Plan of Goldsmith and Guy: Comprising Rules for Projecting Maps, With an Atlas

The maps, which accompany this geography, are engraved from Wilkinson's, whose authority was, by the late Rev. Hir. Buckminster, pronounced as good as could be followed; and although some of them may appear too full of names for the use of learners, the inconvenience, should it be thought one, may ca sily be remedied by drawing a black mark with a pen under those words, to which particular attention is required. This sufficiently distinguishes the most important words, and for use, the maps will be rather benefited, than injured or defaced.
