Excerpt from The Eclectic Elementary Geography

The elementary geography is the first. Or lower, of the two books which constitute the New Eclectic Series. Though designed as an introduction to the study of Geography, and adapted to the comprehension of young children, this book covers the entire subject. Touching upon and explaining the salient points in each branch of the subject - Mathematical, Physical, and Political.. The Maps are new. And were prepared especially for this book from the best authorities extant. While the accurate shape of each country has been shown with great nicety, clearness and distinctness have been attained by omitting such minor towns and such details of physical structure as in no way affect the practical requirements of the study. A chapter entitled How to Study a Map meets the difficulty which young children experience in un derstanding the relation between a map and the country under consideration.
