Excerpt from Cambridge Geographical Readers This book was written in accordance with the Board of Education's Circular (834) on the Teaching of Geography, but, as it deals with most of the countries which have been so radically affected by the War, its publication was delayed until the Peace settlement. It will be noted that the earlier chapters on the Principles of Geography have special reference to Europe; and that the last chapter on "The New Europe" gives a comprehensive review of the changes which the War has brought about.

Excerpt from Carpenter's Geographical Reader: Europe This book aims to give the children a plain and simple de scription of the countries of Europe as they are to-day. The method is by taking the little ones on a personally conducted tour over the continent. It is the children themselves who cross the Atlantic Ocean, steam over the Baltic and the Mediterranean seas and down the historic Rhine and the Danube. It is they who Climb the Alps and stand on the North Cape watching the sun shine at midnight. It is they who go from city to city, from farm to farm, and factory to factory, seeing how the various peoples live and what they are doing in the work Of the world. It is they who are admitted to the palaces, parliaments, and public offices where they learn how each nation is governed and something as to its civilization, commerce, and trade. It is not intended that these travels should take the place of the school geographies, but that they should be used with such books as supplementary reading. As in the volumes describing similar tours in North America, South America, and Asia, the text-books on geography may be regarded as the skeleton and this reader as the flesh and blood which will clothe the dry bones and make the countries a living whole in the minds of the pupils. A glance at the table of contents will give some idea of the scope and character of the work. The children, having crossed the Atlantic on one of the big ocean greyhounds, begin their tour in the United Kingdom. Landing at Queenstown, they explore Ireland, visiting Cork, Killarney, Limerick, and Galway. They cross the bog lands and plains to Dublin, and thence go to the Giant's Causeway and Belfast, where they learn how linen is made. From Belfast, they sail to Glasgow, and after spending a while in the Lowlands or Industrial Scotland go to Edinburgh by the Trossachs. They make a hunting trip to the Highlands, and visit the homes of Robert Burns and Walter Scott before crossing the border to England.

Excerpt from Around the World, Vol. 1: Geographical Reader; Primary Elementary reading books usually attempt to present what is familiar and what is real. They should establish points of contact between children and persons and things that are near and remote. It is believed that every sentence and picture in this book has a human interest, viewed from a child's standpoint. The line of development followed has become familiar to teachers, but the book acts the part of a pioneer in presenting a wide range of human life to children of primary grades.

Excerpt from Seventh Standard: Oriel Geographical Reader 2. To-day, as we write these lines, a large section of the civilised world has gathered together to do honour to the memory of this man.
