Excerpt from The Public Schools Atlas of Ancient Geography, in 28 Maps on the Plan of 'the Public Schools Atlas of Modern Geography': Edited With an IntroductionThe favourable reception given to the Public Schools Atlas of Modern Geography has fully justified the anticipations of the Publishers, that an Atlas combining the elements of distinctness, accuracy, and simplicity, with due regard to proportion both in the physical and political features, would be useful for the purposes of teaching. N o sooner was the comfort experienced of having an Atlas containing all that was chiey requisite for Educational purposes at a price which made it generally available for schools, than a demand arose for an Ancient Atlas constructed on similar principles. The present Atlas of Ancient Geography is presented to the public in the hope and expectation that it will meet this demand.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
