Excerpt from A d104-Book of Commercial Geography Comparatively few statistics are included in the text. The statistical tables, at the end of most of the chapters, relate to the subject-matter of the chapter to which they are appended; it is hoped that they will be found full of information, which, in small space, will helpfully supple ment the text. No statistics have been used that are not believed to represent normal conditions; for this reason older data, in some instances, have been regarded as prefer able to the latest information. N 0 figures relating to some countries have been used; in Cuba, for example, statistical data relating neither to the period before the insurrection of 1895 nor to some years later represented normal condi tions of trade, and they were not used.

"The writers analysed range from Anne Frank and Saul Friedlander, to Ida Fink, Louis Begley, and W. G. Sebald; topics covered include the Kindertransport experience, exile to Siberia, living in hiding, Jewish children masquerading as Christian, and ghetto diaries. The texts discussed here use a variety of distinctive techniques, including chora, split-time, and fragmentary narration, in order to represent historical atrocity through the eyes of children."--BOOK JACKET.
Excerpt from Commercial Geography: An Intermediate Text-Book The requirements of modern geographical method have been kept carefully in view, and an attempt has been made to harmonise regional treatment with the necessary consideration of political units. Questions, which have been added at the end of each chapter, should provide a useful basis for revision and many others of a similar nature will occur to the teacher. The free introduction of maps and diagrams is not intended to supersede the atlas, which should be always by the student's side and he should be encouraged to trace tendencies towards change by constant reference to the various Statistical Abstracts issued by the Board of Trade. Such exercises make no inordinate demand upon either time or ability, and are of the utmost value in conjunction with a rational text-book from the educative point of view.

Excerpt from A Short Commercial Geography Geography is a study of the earth from the stand point of Man, and Commercial Geography is simply that part of the Science which is specially concerned with Man's wants. That is to say, it is a study of the earth from the standpoint of the intelligent merchant, who wishes to know where he can get the largest amount of the usual commodities, in the best condition, at the least cost, and with the greatest regularity. The essential point is a thorough knowledge of the typical conditions under which the commodities are, or may be, produced; and it is the office of Commercial Geography to supply this knowledge. It is a cause for regret, therefore, that in various ways Commercial Geography has been either made a matter of cram, ' or confused with Political Economy and Commerce. Knowledge of the theory of ex change and of actual commercial operations is of infinite value in actual business but neither the one nor the other has, I think, any direct place in a text-book of Commercial Geography. If this conception of the Science is correct, it is obvious that variable statistics and similar burdens on, or appeals to, the memory should be avoided; and that the typical conditions for the production of necessaries should be emphasised. And the Science can be called truly educational only if it leaves much to the initiative and co-operation of the student, simply providing a basis for ascertained facts and generalisations and for analysing. The true relations of ordinary economic phenomena. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
