Excerpt from Physiography: For High Schools For a number of years the authors have felt the need of a text that presents physiography from the high school point of view, both in content and in treatment. Since more than nine tenths of the pupils who enter secondary schools complete their formal education in such schools, the needs of this great class cannot be neglected; and subjects must be planned with the fact in mind that secondary pupils should know the scientific explanation of the common phenomena of nature. A course in physiography in a college is naturally limited by the existence of parallel courses in astronomy, geology, and meteorology; and the fear of overlapping has led college men to omit many valuable topics from their courses and from the texts which they have prepared. No such limitation is found in the high school, and teachers are at liberty to select such topics as will contribute most to the culture of the pupil. High school pupils should know of the earth as a whole, its relation to the other heavenly bodies, and the influence of its size, shape, and motions upon our daily life. They should know of the sun and the moon and their influence, and lack of influence, upon us. We have, therefore, included in our course, such astronomical topics as are necessary to this end. The pupils should also know of the natural resources of our country and their importance, and should understand the influence of climate and physical environment upon a given region as well as upon the history and the development of our nation and of the civilizations of the world. We have, therefore, included topics usually treated only in geology, meteorology, and history. The abstract discussion of processes, as processes, belongs to the college rather than to the high school; we have, therefore, discussed such topics as diastrophism, erosion, and the like in connection with concrete instances of their work.

Excerpt from Practical Physiography The last few years have withnessed important changes in the text-books pertaining to Physical Geography. The study of the world as a fixed model has given place to the study of a world whose physical features are undergoing continual change. This change is in turn seen to affect the climate and the life conditions of plants and animals, and to have an important influence upov the activities of men. The number of books treating the subject from this newer point of view has rapidly increased, and several of them are so excellent that there would appear to be scarcely room for another book covering the same ground in the same manner. It seems to the author, however, that the evolution of better methods of teaching Physical Geography is still going on. The student will never gain what he should from the study until the use of the text-book is supplemented, not by the indoor laboratory method, for that would take the life out of the subject, but by the study of nature itself in the great outdoor laboratory. It is not the amount of ground gone over; it is not what is memorized from a textbook; it is not watching experiments in the class room, which makes Physical Geography, or Physiography as we prefer to call it, of value in the high school. It is rather the gaining of an ability to understand the meaning of the phenomena of the land, the water, and the air, and the relation of all life to them. For this purpose nothing can take the place of excursions and the study of the real world. The author has tried to work out in the present volume a practical concrete treatment of the subject along these lines. The book is intended as an aid to study, not as a compendium of information. Consequently a description of the world as a whole is omitted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from High School Geography Of late years the study of Physical Geography has made rapid advances; it forms part of the course of study in higher schools, and has its lectureships and professorships in various universities of the United States and Europe. It is recognized not only as an important study in itself, cultivating the habit of observation and of associating cause and effect, but also as an introduction, or rather an incitement, to the study of various sciences. Physical Geography, a description of Nature in What pertains to the Earth, is eclectic in character. Resting mainly on Geology, and only to a less degree upon Meteor ology, it reaches out to Astronomy, to Mineralogy, to Chemistry, to Biology, and even to History and Political Economy.

Excerpt from Physiography for Advanced Students The course of elementary physiography, outlined in the helpful syllabus issued by the Department of Science and Art in 1896, constitutes an excellent introduction to physical science. In the advanced stage of the subject, the fundamental principles described in the elementary course are developed and expanded so that the two stages together provide the student with a comprehensive view of various branches of natural knowledge. A little book, entitled Physiography for Beginners, designed to assist students taking up the elementary stage of the subject, has met with so favourable a reception that the author has been encouraged to prepare a volume to cover the advanced course. The present book is the result. The plan which was adopted in the earlier part of supplying precise instructions for simple experiments to exemplify the principles underlying the phenomena described, has been adhered to, as well as that of briefly summarising the chapters and adding questions (some of them from examination papers in physiography) for home exercises, when the book is used in classes. A glance through the pages will, it is believed, afford justification for the hope that the general reader who is anxious to become acquainted with the causes of familiar natural phenomena, such as cyclones, tides, seismic disturbances, c., will find the volume serviceable and interesting.

Excerpt from Students Laboratory Manual of Physical Geography The brief treatment of life in this manual in no way represents the author's estimate of its importance. The individual teacher must lead in supplementing the text on this theme, since the material is largely in books, and the selection depends on the school library.

Excerpt from Field and Laboratory Note Book in Physical Geography Professor Merrill adds a manual to the list that appears to fill a need in the schools arising from the fact that some of the manuals already published are too elementary and some are too far advanced. That is, some of them require too much purely mechanical work, giving the impression that the object is to occupy the hands of the pupil regardless of whether the exercise illustrates any principles or leads to any conclusions. The other class of manuals presumes too much on the previous knowledge and experience of the pupil for the early years of the school. This gap between the two kinds of manuals appears to be filled better by Professor Merrill's book than by any other that I have seen. It likewise is wider in its scope and covers the Whole field of Physical Geography more thoroughly than any other. It is a step in the right direction and I hope it may prove serviceable to all who use it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Elements of Physical Geography There are good textbooks on physical geography, but there are many teachers and school departments not satisfied with any of them. The author has endeavored to meet the require ments of these teachers as far as such needs could be ascertained. With a subject as broad as physical geography there will al ways be lack of uniformity in the manner of presentation, as well (as in the subject matter. The subject is one which is undergoing many changes, and it is possible that both the teachers and the subject may be ahead of present textbooks in many particulars. Every class in physical geography should have more or less laboratory and field work associated with the textbook. One of the functions of the textbook not the only one, by any means is to serve as a handbook, which the pupil studies as an aid in the interpretation of what he sees in the labora tory.

Excerpt from High School Geography: Physical, Economic and Regional The most important thing about the earth is the fact that it is a human planet, that men not only live upon it, but make. Somehow, a living out of it. The earth as a planet, a machine which goes and works, an organism which has grown and developed in the past and will continue to do so in the future, has never been so thoroughly studied and understood as it is to - day. The main result of such study, under the name of physical geography, has been a favorite subject in secondary schools. Some special phases of human activity, more or less closely related to the earth, such as products, manufactures, trade, races, customs, language, religion, and government, are everywhere taught under the names of commercial and political geography. But these different kinds of geography are seldom brought closely together, and the crowning relationship of all geographic science, the relation of the human species to its natural environment, is generally missed or but dim seen.
