examined this work somewhat hastily, but
enough to be fully convinced that it most
perfectly supplies very great want. II is
printed in two volumes Of about 24O pages

each volume complete in itself. II is of
very convenient form and size and seems
to contain all the information, and much
more, which is given in the unwieldy
expensive works of Cotton and Mitchell,

Physical geography illustrated by
profusion Of Maps and Charts, showing
the relative distribution of land and water

The distribution of Rain and Snow-The
vegetation of eve Latitude-The distri-
button of animals-A colored view Of the
types Of five great ces of mankind-A
map showing the Re ,gions Of the world,
and the pr evidence of each faith To the
student Of Physical Geography these Maps

marks are invaluable.
Complete and minute Maps are given
Of every County and every State and in
connection with each are copious remarks
upon every matter of interest which per.
