Abstract
ONE of my claims to address you on the subject of geographical education is that I have been a traveller. In my opinion nothing can better bring home to the mind the value of good geographical instruction, or make more keenly felt the disadvantages of the lack of it, than a scientific journey round the world. It is naturally the scientific side of geography which interests me most; and it is on the importance and prospects of physical geography as a subject of education that I have now to speak.
