Excerpt from Murray's Small Classical Atlas

The unanimous approval with which the system of coloured contours was welcomed in the earlier publication has induced the Editor to use the same method in an Atlas which will be largely used for historical purposes. The configuration of country must necessarily be the most important factor in its history, since it exercises an influence not merely ou events but also on the character of its population. This fact has become much more widely recognised in recent years, and no expense has been spared to emphasise it in this publication.

It will be noticed that owing to the mountain ranges being no longer engraved it is possible to read any name with ease. Amongst other new features in the Atlas is a sheet containing fourteen plans of famous battlefields of Ancient History; these will be of interest both to teachers and students.
