Abstract
THIS is the text to accompany the altogether satisfactory half-a-crown atlas we noticed some time ago and in saying that the text is as good as the maps, we intend to convey high praise. Within the limits of somewhere about 200 pages, Mr. Johnston has contrived to give a very admirable account of the various natural phenomena with which physical geography has to deal; the facts are well and widely chosen. The style is clear and the arrangement a very model.
