Excerpt from A Sketch of Modern and Ancient Geography: For the Use of Schools The Second Part, which contains a short view of Antient Geography, has been unattempted in this manner, as far as I know, by any one but myself. I have endeavoured to make a dry catalogue of names interesting and useful, by the application of history, chronology, and poetry; and I have selected those passages which occurred to my recollection from the books most generally read at schools of eminence and in colleges, for reasons suficiently obvious to every teacher. To say nothing of the difficulty of printing Greek at a provincial press which I have found on re peated trials to be insuperably great Latin, on other accounts, and especially Latin poetry, ap peared to me preferable for quotation, as it is more easily committed to the memory, and more easily retained. I have, therefore, endeavoured to quote as many passages as might illustrate the subject, The first edition of this book was printed at Shrewsbury. T 800 the Note to my Installation Sermon, p. 129.without overloading the memory of the student; and have now and then attempted to elucidate an obscure or disputed passage. I have also added the modern names of antient places, which I have caused to be printed in italics, to prevent obscu rity or mistake.

Excerpt from A Sketch of Modern and Antient Geography, for the Use of Schools In the present edition of this little work, the author has made some very important additions, chiefly in the modern part of it. He has endeavoured to condense a great quantity of matter, derived from scattered but interesting documents, into as small a compass as might be consistent with perspicuity, without altering the nature of an elementary treatise. The quantity actually added appears to be about thirty pages, but is in fact considerably more, as he has adopted a different form of printing, which allows a greater quantity of matter in every page. At the same time, he feels so desirous of contributing, as far as he can, to facilitate the means of education, and testify his gratitude to the public for their favourable reception of his labours, that he makes no increase of price for the increased size and materials of the volume. He begs also to observe that he has added a map of the West Indies to the modern, and of Mauritania, Numidia, and Africa propria to the antient atlas without any increase of price.
