Excerpt from Home and School Atlas It is thought that the pronunciation of these geographical names will supply a long-felt need and prove a most useful feature of the Atlas, - helpful alike to the student of geography, history and literature, and to the reader of newspapers, magazines and books of travel. In many cities and towns, the free text-book system prevails, and as a result very few of the pupils in the upper grammar and high school classes have geographies or atlases for use either in school or at home; yet these older pupils are in almost constant need of reference maps for the preparation of lessons in history and literature. Several of the maps in this Atlas were prepared expressly for such use. The products and industries of our country afford a key to much of its history, especially that relating to the settlement, the building of railroads and other highways of trade, sectional differences, tariff and financial legislation. The many small charts of the United States will therefore be found useful, not only to pupils in school, but also to farmers, mechanics, tradesmen, statesmen and citizens in general. The various maps and charts used. In this Atlas are from the author's Complete Geography. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
