Excerpt from The Geography of Commerce and Industry The Geography of Commerce and Industry has been prepared to meet the needs of eighth grade pupils and those who enter high school. It recognizes the dearth of reference works on many of the subjects treated, and has given the leading industries such treatment as to make each chap ter a unit. The dependence of industries upon geographical conditions, the rela tion of man to his environment, and the effect of commerce upon civiliza tion are clearly shown. The industrial life of our own country is fully treated, and then the relation of the United States to other countries, and of these to each other, are shown.
