The Werner Grammar School Geography PDF Download

Excerpt from The Werner Grammar School Geography, Vol. 1 The study of geography affords excellent opportunities for the exercise of judgment, generalization, inference, and com parison. In this, the second book of the series, designed for pupils who are completing a course of elementary studies, the special purpose has been to secure the exercise of these powers. This book appeals to the memory of the pupil as little as possible, but to his judgment as much as the material to be studied and the age of the pupil will warrant. It is evident that there are two orders of treatment of the facts and topics of geography. We may discuss in succes sive chapters relief, climate, commerce, or we may treat of the United States, Brazil, France, etc. By the first plan we gather around one topic facts from many regions; by the second we localize in one region facts pertaining to many topics.
