Book excerpt: Excerpt from A View of Ancient Geography and Ancient History, Vol. 2 The Atlas that accompanies this book, consists only of sucha selection of Maps, chiefly from Wilkinson's Atlas Classica, as are absolutely necessary for the elementary purpose to which our news herein have been uniformly confined. If we meet the success that we hope for, and be called on for a second edition, we contemplate to enlarge the plan, at least of the Atlas, and probably of the text book, so far as may be judged to be pru dent; taking care at the same time not to render either nu wieldy for the use of schools, whose convenience the author pledges himself always to consider as the prime object. It may be an important suggestion to the student that he should pass twice or thrice in a cursory manner over the capital objects both of the geography and history, ware he attends to the details of either; being calculated to save him much labour, as well as excite a progressive interest. And curiosity. And if any division of these demand precedence, it should be given to the sacred geography, and the table of empires.
