Geography for children : Or, A short and easy method of teaching and learning geography: Designed principally for the use of schools. Whereby even children may, in a short time, know the use of the terrestrial globe and geographical maps, and all the considerable countries in the world; their situation, boundaries, extent, division, islands, rivers, lakes, chief cities, government and religion. Divided into lessons, by way of question and answer: with a new general map of the world, and also a list of the maps necessary for children. Translated from the French of Abbot Lenglet Du Fresnoy, and now greatly augmented and improved throughout the whole. The eleventh edition. To which is prefixed, a method of learning geography without a master: for the use of such grown persons as have neglected this useful study in their youth. And to this edition is now added a table of the latitude and longitude of the most remarkable places mentioned in this work; also a print of the orrery.
