About This Item
Cincinnati / New York: Wilson, Hinkle & Co., 1870. Edge and corner worn, scuffed, scratched and stained, heavy corner and edge wear, spine is split at the top, some of the interior pages are soiled on the edges, some writing in pencil, binding is loose but still in tact, overall a collectible vintage textbook! 92 historical pages nicely enhanced by black and white illustrations and colored maps! "This volume is the second of the Eclectic Series of Geographies. It is complete in itself, though designed to precede, in a course of study, the use of the third and larger work. The authors have endeavored to treat the subject in as brief and concise a manner as possible, and yet to preserve that clearness and fullness of statement so desirable, and even indispensable, in a text-book for young pupils. To secure this end, they have limited themselves to statements of the essential facts and principles of the science, excluding all unimportant details and avoiding all lengthy descriptions." ---- from the Preface. Pictorial Cover. Fair/No Jacket. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. Hardcover.
