Morse's School Geography, with Fifty Maps, &c.

A System of Geography for the Use of Schools, illustrated with more than Fifty Cerographic Maps, and numerous Wood-cut Engravings. By SIDNEY E. MORSE, A.M.

This Geography has the great advantage of presenting the Map and Description on the same page, or on pages directly opposite, so that the pupil can readily refer from one to the other. The Maps are more numerous, and generally on a larger scale than in any other school geography. The Exercises on the Maps are so framed as to present a connected view of the great natural features of each country. The Descriptions are in a series of short paragraphs, written in a remarkably concise style, and confined to the most interesting and characteristic matter. The General and Comparative Views at the end of the volume are admirably fitted to strengthen the judgment. The whole work is the result of years of careful study. It will be printed on fine paper, and the new art of Cerography, now applied for the first time to a work of this kind, will enable the publishers to make it the cheapest school geography ever issued.
