Riassunto

Excerpt from Applied Geography, a Preliminary Sketch: With Ten Maps

Editor of the London Magazine. The object of the publication is to shew what, in my estimation, are some of the bearings of geographical knowledge on human interests; on the course of history, but more especially on industry, commerce, and colonization. The first two chapters deal with general data and methods, which are illustrated in the following chapters with special reference to Africa, the British Empire, the world at large some of the chief commodities of Commerce, and the lands still available for European and American enterprise. The book is really a series of suggestions and examples. It may prove of some use to teachers and others desirous of making the most of Geography, and, it is hoped, may have some interest for intelligent readers generally. What I regard as the field of Geography may be learned from the first chapter. J. Scorr keltie. I, savlllc Row, \v., Illay, 1908.
