Excerpt from Commercial Geography of the British Isles The occupations of men, therefore, have a natural distribution. On the coast they become fishers, sailors, or traders; on the plains, farmers; on the hills, shepherds; while mining and other industries depend ing upon coal and iron spring up where these sources of natural wealth are available. Looking at a physical map of the British Isles, the south-east of Great Britain and the centre of Ireland are seen to be plains; the northern half of Great Britain and all the west and the corners of Ireland are generally mountainous, with plains of small extent. The south-east and east of Great Britain, therefore, are mainly agricultural, and the west mainly pastoral. Agriculture is more developed in Ireland on the central plain than in the mountains to the north west and south, but cattle-rearing is everywhere more important than the cultivation of the soil. This is largely due to the heavy rains, an illustration of the fact that climate as well as relief helps to deter mine the nature and distribution of occupations.

Excerpt from Commercial Geography of the World Outside the British Isles This book, while a continuation of the Commercial Geography of the British Isles published in 1899, is so arranged that it may be used independently, or even before it Like the earlier work, it is based on lectures delivered for the Owens College and the Geographical Society in Manchester, and at the Heriot-Watt College, Edinburgh. The lectures have been rewritten in book form, taking into account recent economic developments. As far as possible the writer has attempted to interpret as well as to record the most important geographical phenomena of economic significance. The aim both of student and of teacher should be not merely to acquire facts but to correlate them, not to be a gazetteer but a geographer. In this short book it is impossible to treat the economic geography of every country in an exhaustive manner. Nor is it necessary. It is not important that the beginner should know all about every country. It is important that he should know the main facts about the most important and typical countries, and accordingly certain countries have been chosen for fuller treatment Having thoroughly mastered the facts for one type of country, the student finds it easy to treat similar but unknown countries in like manner from the larger geographical and statistical hand-books. This personal compiling of economic geography of different countries by the student should be a marked feature in all advanced classes. The book is divided into two parts - (1) General; (2) Regional A word may be said about the arrangement of the regional descriptions. An attempt has been made to arrange the British lands beyond the seas so as to secure some educational continuity, which is lacking in the order of treatment usually adopted The temperate states, which most resemble in their conditions those of the British Isles, are taken first, and the tropical lands last.

Excerpt from Handbook of Commercial Geography Preparations for a ninth edition were begun in 1913, and were nearly completed when the war broke out. This expression, the war, ' n'ow recurs again and again in the text, and one can only hope that the war referred to will prove to be such an unmistakable epoch in history as to leave no doubt as to what war is meant. When war was declared, both the publishers and I agreed that it would be altogether inopportune to publish a work of the scope of the present when the geography of almost the entire world was about to be upset. Publication was accordingly postponed till after the conclusion of the principal peace treaties. All the time, however, preparations for the new edition were going on, and the work now appears in a form more completely recast than any previous edition. The resetting of the entire book and the re numbering of the paragraphs have allowed of interpolations and rear rangements of matter on a much greater scale than ever before. The introductory matter of the fourth and eighth editions has been put in its proper place in the text, and subjects that seemed to me to require further elucidation have been dealt with at greater length. Such additions are scattered throughout the book, but the principal additions are under Climate (with new illustrative maps), Commercial and Industrial Towns, Coal, and The British Isles. It is this last section that has been most considerably extended, but not so much by the addition of new matter as by the incorporation of matter previously in one or other of the introductions. Notwithstanding the delay in publication, the work is still issued to an unsettled world, and one of which the settlement on a basis allowing of a new period of orderly evolution seems still remote. Comparisons under the head of value between pre-war and post-war conditions seem to me to be hardly ever possible, and for that reason no average values are given in this edition for periods subsequent to 1913, or the fiscal year 1913 - 14, where the fiscal does not correspond with the calendar year. International values have of course a meaning in individual transactions, but in present conditions I can attach no meaning to average values for any period comparable with those of pre-war periods, and therefore I do not choose to encumber my pages with data of which I cannot myself discern the use. It is doubtful, indeed, whether we shall ever be able to get such figures. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Geography of the British Isles In this Series I have tried to embody the experience of a teacher and of an examiner. This experience has led me to several conclusions, which will, I believe, be confirmed by most practical teachers who are interested in Geography as a subject of real educational value: - 1. That map in text-books cannot generally be used directly with the text, as it is impracticable to hare the book open in more than one place at a time; bat that their presence in books has led to a regrettable neglect of the Atlas. 2. That an excessive variety of type and other mechanical devices for classification confuse the average pupil. 3. That most text-books contain much which would be better learned from the Atlas, or which is only an unnecessary tax on the memory. Consequently, this Series contains no maps and little variety of type; and I have intentionally avoided mentioning, e.g. exact heights, distances or sizes, small industries, and unimportant places. Wherever any definite comparisons are made, they are intended only for reference, and not to be learnt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
