Abstract
Dr. SHANAHAN has succeeded in producing a book on uth America that was much needed. After some preliminary chapters on the continent as a whole, including a most interesting one on historical geography, he treats South America by natural regions, thus avoiding much repetition which a treatment by States would entail.
